"Bird of Washington, or Great American Sea Eagle. Falco washingtoniensis-male" is a notable illustration by the renowned American ornithologist, naturalist, and painter John James Audubon. This artwork is part of his seminal work, "The Birds of America," which is a collection of life-sized watercolors of North American birds, produced between 1827 and 1838. Audubon's illustration depicts a majestic raptor, which he believed to be a distinct species of sea eagle, native to the United States.

Audubon named the bird after George Washington, the first President of the United States, as a tribute to his leadership and character. The illustration features the bird with a powerful stance and keen expression, showcasing Audubon's attention to detail and commitment to depicting birds in their natural habitats. The work is characterized by its dramatic composition, vibrant colors, and anatomical accuracy, which were hallmarks of Audubon's artistic style.

However, the "Bird of Washington" has been a subject of controversy and confusion among ornithologists. Subsequent research has suggested that the bird depicted by Audubon might have been a misidentified immature Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), rather than a distinct species. Despite this, the illustration remains an important piece of American art and natural history, reflecting Audubon's influence on ornithology and his dedication to documenting the avian life of North America.

Today, "Bird of Washington, or Great American Sea Eagle. Falco washingtoniensis-male" is not only appreciated for its aesthetic qualities but also studied for its historical significance in the context of American ornithology and the development of scientific knowledge. The illustration is one of the many reasons "The Birds of America" is considered one of the finest ornithological works ever completed.
