Capa Para Notebook Audubon American Scoter Duck Bird Painting

The American Scoter Duck, featured in Birds of America (1827) by John James Audubon, is a remarkable illustration capturing the essence of this sea duck in its natural habitat. Audubon, a renowned American ornithologist, meticulously recorded the American Scoter's unique characteristics—its dark plumage, stout body, and distinctive large bill. This etching was created by Robert Havell, who skillfully reproduced Audubon's original watercolor, bringing out the bird’s natural behavior and setting. The American Scoter Duck, often found along the coasts, is depicted in a dynamic pose, illustrating the bird’s strong presence in its coastal environment. The detailed work of Audubon and Havell in this piece reflects the beauty and realism of the early 19th-century naturalist art, capturing both the spirit and the precise features of the species.
