EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored steel engraving showcases the vibrant and intricately detailed features of the Sparkling-tailed Woodstar, Tilmatura dupontii, also known as Dupont's Hummingbird or Trochilus dupontii. The image is taken from Sir William Jardine's Naturalists Library: Ornithology, specifically the volume dedicated to Hummingbirds, published in Edinburgh by W.H. Lizars in 1834. The Sparkling-tailed Woodstar is a small hummingbird species native to South America, primarily found in the Andes Mountains of Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. The male, as depicted in this engraving, exhibits a stunning iridescent green back, a brilliant orange belly, and a shimmering, metallic blue-green tail. The female, on the other hand, has a duller green back and a white belly with a few spots. The Sparkling-tailed Woodstar is named for its distinctive tail, which it uses to flash brightly in courtship displays. This hummingbird is also known for its long, curved beak, which it uses to extract nectar from flowers. The engraving captures the bird's delicate features and captivating beauty, offering a glimpse into the natural world of the past. The intricate details in this hand-colored steel engraving are a testament to the skill and artistry of the engraver and the dedication of Sir William Jardine to documenting the natural world. This image serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and appreciating the natural beauty that surrounds us.
