Feathursday Buntings

Buntings are Old World finch-like birds in the genus Emberiza (the North American Painted Bunting is in the Cardinal family). These wood engravings of the Corn Bunting (Emberiza calandra) and Cirl Bunting (Emberiza cirlus) are by British author and wood engraver Eric Fitch Daglish (1892-1966) from his book Birds of the British Isles, published in London by J. M. Dent & Sons in 1948 in a limited edition of 1500 copies, with 23 black and white and 25 hand-colored wood engravings by Daglish. Our copy is a donation from our friend, Wisconsin wood engraver Tony Drehfal.
