EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, a majestic Casuarius casuarius, also known as the southern cassowary, takes center stage at the Natural History Museum at Tring. The mounted specimen of this enigmatic, flightless bird from the Australian rainforest stands proudly, its distinctive blue-black plumage contrasting strikingly against the lush greenery of its surroundings. The backdrop of the image is a vibrant array of flora, bursting with an exquisite assortment of flowers. The palette ranges from the calming hues of a lilac-colored Boraginaceae bloom to the bold, rich reds of an Oleaceae blossom. The botanical scene is further enriched by the delicate, ethereal beauty of a Redoute painting, featuring Myosotis scorpioides, Syringa, and other exquisite flowers from the Angiospermae class. The southern cassowary, an Angiosperm and a Dicot, is a part of the Eudicot clade, which also includes the Asterid order. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the intricate relationship between these fascinating creatures and the diverse flora that sustains them. The image is a testament to the breathtaking beauty of the natural world and the importance of preserving it for future generations. The photograph, expertly captured by Harry Taylor, transports us to a world of wonder and discovery, where the elegance of the southern cassowary and the allure of the flowering plants harmoniously coexist. It is a visual feast for the senses, inviting us to appreciate the intricate details of nature and the delicate balance of the ecosystem.
