EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-colored steel engraving depicts the Northern Black-Flycatcher, Melaenornis edolioides, also known as the Walking Drongo or Sooty Falconet. The image is taken from William John Swainson's seminal work, "Birds of Western Africa," published in Sir William Jardine's Naturalists Library: Ornithology, in Edinburgh in 1837. Swainson's meticulous illustration captures the bird's distinctive features, including its glossy black plumage, long, curved bill, and prominent white eye-ring. The Northern Black-Flycatcher is a small bird of prey native to West Africa, with a diet primarily consisting of insects, reptiles, and small vertebrates. It is known for its distinctive hunting technique, which involves walking on the ground in search of prey, rather than perching and waiting for prey to come to it like many other flycatcher species. The engraving by William Lizars masterfully brings Swainson's illustration to life, with intricate details and vibrant colors that highlight the beauty and uniqueness of this fascinating bird.
