EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enigmatic beauty of the Reunion Starling (Fregilupus varius), an extinct passerine bird native to the Mascarene Islands in the Indian Ocean. The Reunion Starling, also known as the Bourbon Crested Starling or Huppe de Bourbon, was a member of the Sturnidae family and is distinguished by its long, curved beak and distinctive tuft of feathers on its head. Once abundant on the islands of Reunion and Mauritius, the Reunion Starling is believed to have become extinct around 1860 due to habitat loss and predation by introduced species. This sad loss is a reminder of the fragility of the natural world and the importance of preserving biodiversity. The Reunion Starling was a medium-sized bird, with a brown body and wings, and long, pointed wings. It was a sauropsid, a type of reptile-descended bird, and a passeriform, a type of perching bird. Its beak was long and curved, perfect for probing the ground for food. The tuft on its head, which gave the bird its crested appearance, was a distinctive feature that set it apart from other starlings. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the Reunion Starling's unique beauty and the importance of preserving the natural world for future generations. The tag on the bottom right corner indicates that this image is from the extensive archives of Mary Evans Picture Library, a leading provider of high-quality historical and contemporary images for use in a wide range of media and educational projects.
