Description
WALLACE’S SWIFT — Vintage illustration, from John Gould’s BIRDS OF ASIA published in 1850. Only birdwatchers and ornithologists know if this bird still exists. This is ornithology before the camera.
Two birds with long tails perch on a branch, displaying a combination of green, white, and red feathers on a backdrop of pale sky and foliage. Smaller birds are visible in the background amid delicate leaves and branches.
