EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 17 from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Volume 4 (1873) features a stunning hand-colored lithograph of the Otis tarda, or Great Bustard, a magnificent bird native to Europe. The illustration captures the Great Bustard in its full display, showcasing its distinctive features and grandeur. The Great Bustard is the largest flying bird in Europe and a member of the Otididae family, also known as bustards. This bird is characterized by its long, powerful legs, broad wings, and a plain, brownish-gray body with a white underbelly. The male, as depicted in this illustration, has a distinctive black and white plumage during the breeding season. The Great Bustard was once widespread across Europe, but due to habitat loss and hunting, its population declined significantly. In the nineteenth century, conservation efforts began, and the Great Bustard was one of the first birds to be successfully reintroduced into the wild. The illustration captures the Great Bustard in its natural habitat, likely outside of Salisbury Plain in England, where the bird was reintroduced. The bird is shown displaying during the daytime, an unusual behavior for bustards, which are typically crepuscular, meaning they are most active at dawn and dusk. The Sauropsida classification system, which groups reptiles and birds together, places the Great Bustard in the Aves class, and the Otidiformes order. This illustration is a testament to the beauty and importance of the natural world, captured in exquisite detail during the 19th century by the skilled hands of John Gould and his team of artists and colorists.
