EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 25 from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Volume 3 (1873) presents a stunning hand-coloured lithograph of the Emberiza pusilla, also known as the Little Bunting. This exquisite illustration showcases the intricate details of this small bird's anatomy, with its distinctive brown and white plumage, long pointed bill, and distinctive cheek stripes. The Little Bunting is a member of the Emberizidae family, which is part of the larger order of Aves, or birds. This bird is native to the Old World, specifically Europe, Asia, and Africa. It is a ground-dwelling bird that is commonly found in grasslands and open fields, where it feeds on the seeds of various angiosperms, or flowering plants. The illustration captures the Little Bunting in its natural habitat, perched on a blade of grass, with a vibrant angiosperm flower in the background. The use of hand coloring adds depth and texture to the image, bringing the bird to life and highlighting its intricate feather patterns. The Little Bunting is a diurnal bird, meaning it is active during the daytime. It is a small bird, measuring only about 12 centimeters in length, making it a delightful addition to any collection of avian illustrations. The illustration is a testament to the artistry and attention to detail of the 19th century, providing a glimpse into the natural world of over a century ago.
