Yellow-breasted Chat Audubon Royal Octavo Print.
<B>Yellow-breasted Chat Audubon Royal Octavo Print.</B></I> Plate number 244, the yellow-breasted chat is another of Audubon's best, featuring four of the birds, three males and one female. The males are gathering around the female in her nest, which has been built in a sweet briar. Native to the Southern states, this little bird is shown in pleasing tones of green and yellow, which are offset by the pink and greens in the tree. Audubon was a master of juxtaposition as well as biology. The print is in pristine condition with the small row of holes on the left from being disbound, otherwise as clean an example as one could hope for.
