EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured steel engraving showcases the Ecuadorian Hillstar, Oreotrochilus chimborazo, a captivating hummingbird species native to the high-altitude cloud forests of Ecuador. The image is taken from W.C.L. Martin's "A General History of Humming-birds or the Trochilidae," published by John Gould in London in 1852. The Ecuadorian Hillstar is a small hummingbird, with iridescent green and violet feathers on its back and wings, and a white underbelly. The male and female have distinct differences in plumage, with the male sporting a vibrant orange-red throat and the female having a duller, greyish-white throat. The Hillstar is named after the Chimborazo region in Ecuador, where it was first discovered. These hummingbirds are adapted to the cool, humid conditions of their mountainous habitat. They have a unique feeding behavior, hovering in front of flowers and using their long, curved bills to reach the nectar deep inside. This stunning engraving is a testament to the intricate detail and artistry of 19th-century natural history illustration. The delicate shading and precise lines capture the Hillstar's beauty and grace, transporting us to the cloud forests of Ecuador and offering a glimpse into the natural world of these remarkable birds.
