Winter Hawk from Birds of America (1827) by John James Audubon

"Winter Hawk" (Plate 71) in John James Audubon's "The Birds of America" features the Rough-legged Hawk (Buteo lagopus). This particular illustration showcases the bird in its winter plumage, which is characterized by a lighter coloration compared to its summer feathers.

In this artwork, the Rough-legged Hawk is perched on a branch against a wintry landscape. Audubon pays meticulous attention to detail, portraying the bird's distinctive features, including its feather patterns, facial markings, and the rugged texture of the bark on which it is perched. The background suggests a cold, snowy environment, reinforcing the bird's association with winter.

Audubon's illustrations are not only artistic but also scientifically accurate, reflecting his dedication to capturing the natural world with precision. The Rough-legged Hawk's inclusion in "The Birds of America" contributes to Audubon's comprehensive documentation of North American bird species.
