"Discover the Fascinating World of Loxia: From Parrot Crossbills to Grosbeaks" Loxia, a genus of birds comprising various species such as Loxia pytyopsittacus (parrot crossbill) and Loxia curvirostra (the Red Crossbill), captivates with its unique characteristics. In this captivating handcoloured copperplate engraving by William Hayes from Portraits of Rare and Curious Birds from the Menagery of Osterly Park, London: Bulmer in 1794, we get a glimpse into the diverse avian wonders. Among them is the Chestnut-bellied seed-finch or Oryzoborus angolensis, also known as Angola grosbeak (Loxia angolensis). Its vibrant plumage and distinctive beak make it an enchanting sight. Similarly, the Java sparrow or Lonchura oryzivora catches our attention with its vulnerable status and striking appearance - often referred to as Java grosbeak (Loxea oryxivora). Another notable member is the Common waxbill or Estrilda astrild (Loxia astreld), depicted in another exquisite illustration by William Hayes. Its delicate features are beautifully captured in this artwork from Portraits of Rare and Curious Birds from the Menagery of Osterly Park. The Southern red bishop or Euplectes orix, commonly called Grenadier grosbeak (Loxia orix), showcases its elegance through yet another stunning engraving by William Hayes. The intricate details bring forth its regal presence amidst nature's tapestry. While exploring these remarkable illustrations, we stumble upon other bird species like Evening grosbeak, brown creeper, black-and-white warbler - all partaking in a homecoming procession for William Curtis in 1821. These glimpses into historical events add depth to our understanding of these magnificent creatures.
