“The bill of the Ægyptian ibis, and the least humming bird”
The final plate of from George Edwards’ A natural history of birds, most of which have not been figured or described, and others very little known, from obscure or too brief descriptions without figures, or from figures very ill designed (1747)
Pretty radical bit of miscellany here: The aforementioned bill of an ibis and hummingbird (plus an egg), plus a couple of beetles from Borneo (two different species of Chalcosoma I think), all drawn at 1:1 (“natural Bignefs”), along with a scale of six English inches (actually 1/16th of an inch too long Edwards notes) superimposed on a map of western Europe.
