Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Geographical and Comparative List of the Birds of Europe and North America Species indicated in this list that have not yet appeared in his work, together with such others as his unrivalled industry may add to the existing Fauna. It is easy to perceive the advantages likely to result from a careful comparison of the natural productions of a fully inhabited country with those of another, the climate of which is in many respects the same. Botanists have contributed much to further, so to speak, our acquaintance with the Planet on which we live I refer especially to those Botanists who continue daily to add to the edifice of Vegetable Geography - a temple of which the foundations were laid, and the framework erected, by the truly illustrious Humboldt. Zoologists, however, up to the present time have been most remiss in their attention to Ornithological Geography; and I am not on that account the more backward in contributing my share to this branch-of knowledge. As in the Specchio Comparativo, the reader will find in the same line the species which are common to both Continents, as well as those which, although different, are to be regarded as corresponding to each other, by a greater or less degree of affinity or analogy.

Download or read book The Birds That Audubon Missed written by Kenn Kaufman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2024-05-07 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned naturalist Kenn Kaufman examines the scientific discoveries of John James Audubon and his artistic and ornithologist peers to show how what they saw (and what they missed) reflects how we perceive and understand the natural world. Raging ambition. Towering egos. Competition under a veneer of courtesy. Heroic effort combined with plagiarism, theft, exaggeration, and fraud. This was the state of bird study in eastern North America during the early 1800s, as a handful of intrepid men raced to find the last few birds that were still unknown to science. The most famous name in the bird world was John James Audubon, who painted spectacular portraits of birds. But although his images were beautiful, creating great art was not his main goal. Instead, he aimed to illustrate (and write about) as many different species as possible, obsessed with trying to outdo his rival, Alexander Wilson. George Ord, a fan and protégé of Wilson, held a bitter grudge against Audubon for years, claiming he had faked much of his information and his scientific claims. A few of Audubon’s birds were pure fiction, and some of his writing was invented or plagiarized. Other naturalists of the era, including Charles Bonaparte (nephew of Napoleon), John Townsend, and Thomas Nuttall, also became entangled in the scientific derby, as they stumbled toward an understanding of the natural world—an endeavor that continues to this day. Despite this intense competition, a few species—including some surprisingly common songbirds, hawks, sandpipers, and more—managed to evade discovery for years. Here, renowned bird expert and artist Kenn Kaufman explores this period in history from a new angle, by considering the birds these people discovered and, especially, the ones they missed. Kaufman has created portraits of the birds that Audubon never saw, attempting to paint them in that artist’s own stunning style, as a way of examining the history of natural sciences and nature art. He shows how our understanding of birds continues to gain clarity, even as some mysteries persist from Audubon’s time until ours.
