EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 3: Glaucidium radiatum, or Jungle Owlet, is depicted in this stunning watercolor illustration by Margaret Bushby Lascelles Cockburn from her collection "Neilgherry Birds and Miscellaneous," published in 1858. The nocturnal owl is shown perched on a branch, its alert and expressive face turned towards the viewer. The Jungle Owlet is a small, brown owl with a long, pointed bill and distinctive white spots on its back and wings. Its breasted body is well-camouflaged, allowing it to blend seamlessly into the jungle environment. This owl is a skilled hunter, relying on its acute senses to locate prey in the dark. With its large, round eyes and keen hearing, it can detect the slightest movements and sounds, making it an efficient predator. The intricate details of the owl's anatomy are beautifully rendered in this illustration, showcasing Cockburn's exceptional artistic skill. The Jungle Owlet is a fascinating avian species, and this illustration provides a captivating glimpse into the natural world of the nineteenth century.
