"Night Hawk, Plate CXLVII" is a notable illustration by the renowned naturalist and painter John James Audubon, featured in his seminal work, "The Birds of America," which was published as a series in sections between 1827 and 1838. The Havell Edition, often considered the original and most valuable edition of this work, comprises 435 hand-colored, life-sized prints made from engraved plates, measuring around 39 by 26 inches. These prints were based on Audubon's original watercolor paintings and were engraved, printed, and colored by Robert Havell Jr. and his father in London.

The "Night Hawk" plate, numbered 147 in the series, depicts the bird species commonly known as the common nighthawk, or Chordeiles minor, in a dynamic and naturalistic pose that reflects Audubon's commitment to portraying birds in their natural habitats. Audubon's attention to detail and his efforts to represent the birds accurately in their environment were groundbreaking at the time and contributed significantly to ornithological knowledge and the field of bird illustration.

Audubon's work was notable not only for its artistic merit but also for its scientific value. "The Birds of America" was a monumental achievement that documented North American bird species with an unprecedented level of detail and accuracy, making it an invaluable resource for both ornithologists and art enthusiasts. The "Night Hawk" plate, like others in the collection, showcases Audubon's skill in capturing the essence of the species through his artistry, contributing to the work's enduring legacy as one of the finest ornithological records ever produced.
