Published between 1827 and 1838, "The Birds of America" is considered one of the finest ornithological works ever completed, and Havell's engravings played a crucial role in bringing Audubon's vision to life.

The engraving captures the bird in its natural habitat, showcasing its distinctive plumage and the intricate details of its surroundings.
