John James Audubon’s "Florida Cormorant (plate Cclii)" is a distinguished illustration from his monumental work, "The Birds of America," which is celebrated for its detailed and lifelike depictions of North American bird species. Published between 1827 and 1838, "The Birds of America" is considered one of the finest ornithological works ever completed, and it played a crucial role in the study and appreciation of birdlife in the United States.

The "Florida Cormorant" plate, numbered Cclii, showcases Audubon’s exceptional skill in capturing the essence of the bird in its natural habitat. The illustration features the Florida Cormorant, a subspecies of the Double-crested Cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus floridanus), which is native to the southeastern United States, particularly the wetlands and coastal regions of Florida. Audubon’s portrayal is notable for its accuracy and attention to detail, highlighting the bird’s distinctive physical characteristics, such as its elongated body, hooked bill, and striking plumage.

Audubon’s artistic process involved extensive field observations and meticulous documentation. He often traveled to remote locations to study birds in their natural environments, making detailed sketches and notes. These field studies were later transformed into the vivid, life-sized illustrations that comprise "The Birds of America." The "Florida Cormorant" plate exemplifies Audubon’s dedication to realism and his ability to convey the dynamic presence of birds within their ecosystems.

The "Florida Cormorant" plate not only serves as a valuable scientific record but also as a work of art that has captivated audiences for generations. Audubon’s contributions to ornithology and natural history have left an enduring legacy, and his illustrations continue to inspire both scientific inquiry and artistic appreciation. The "Florida Cormorant" remains a testament to Audubon’s remarkable talent and his passion for the avian world.
