EDITORS COMMENTS
This photographic print, created by Pearson in 1850, showcases a remarkable collection of rare winter birds recently discovered in the picturesque landscapes of Yorkshire. The image, originally published in the Illustrated London News, transports us back in time to the Victorian era and invites us to witness the breathtaking beauty of these avian wonders. Among the featured birds, we find the elusive Black-throated Diver (Colymbus arcticus), with its striking black throat and white underparts, and the distinctive Red-throated Diver (Colymbus septentrionalis), easily identified by its vibrant red throat and black and white plumage. The Pink-footed Goose (Anser phoenicopus) graces the scene with its rosy hued legs and contrasting black neck, while the Waxen Chatterer (Ampelis garrulus), also known as the Long-tailed Tit, adds a splash of color with its yellow and orange underparts. Two waterbirds, the Sclavonian Grebe (Podiceps cornutus) and the Red-breasted Merganser (Mergus serrator), complete the ensemble. The Sclavonian Grebe, with its distinctive crest and slender body, can be seen diving into the icy waters, while the Red-breasted Merganser, with its red breast and distinctive saw-toothed bill, rests atop the frozen surface. This remarkable print not only serves as a testament to the natural beauty of Yorkshire during the wintry season but also offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing us with a unique perspective on the wildlife and photography of the Victorian era.
