EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the grandeur and elegance of the Black Carrier Cock Pigeon, an English fancy breed from the 1880s. The Black Carrier Cock, the largest flying pigeon breed, is proudly displayed in this image, standing tall against a picturesque countryside backdrop. Three of its kind can be seen in the background, adding depth and context to the scene. The Black Carrier Cock is a striking bird, with its long, sleek body and prominent wattle. Its dark feathers glisten in the sunlight, highlighting the intricate details of its plumage. The bird's neck is adorned with a prominent, curved wattle, adding to its regal appearance. Its tarsus, or legs, are covered in feathers, giving the bird a unique and distinctive look. The Black Carrier Cock was bred for its size and carrying capacity, making it a popular choice for messenger birds in England during the 1800s. Its large body and strong wings allowed it to carry heavy messages over long distances. The breed's history can be traced back to the 16th century, where it was first developed in Europe. This portrait offers a detailed and intriguing glimpse into the history of this fascinating bird breed. The Black Carrier Cock's striking features, from its long body and wattle to its intricately detailed feathers, make it a true marvel of the avian world.
