10 Shorebird Images
Today we have an elegant collection of Shorebird Images! I’m super excited to share these amazing SeaBirds with you guys! There are White and Blue Herons, Killdeers, Gulls, and even an Albatross! Several of these wonderful bird graphics were scanned from a fantastic German Children’s Encyclopedia!! The book is Circa 1878, and is filled with the most spectacular Bird Prints and Engravings! Others are from a Circa 1882 Bird Book. We have several Instant Art Printables for you to print and frame. Instant Art for your Walls! I think some would look perfect in a Beach house. Great for your Coastal and Nautical themed DIY Projects as well!

This Natural History Print shows some lovely Sea Birds! According to the caption, these are Red Throated Diver Birds. A large Nest with two Brown Eggs in it sits nearby. I like the contrast of the browns with the Green Grass on this, as it creates a strikingly lovely scene!

Antique Shorebird Images

Pictured above is a Fabulous Vintage Pelican Image!! This funny looking fellow is a Pelican. I love the big green webbed feet! Make sure you click to enlarge him to see all the fabulous details!
Here is a Gorgeous Vintage Albatross Image!! This Engraving is an Albatross, I believe. It is a black and white image except for the yellow beak and olive green feet. He seems to have such tiny feathers. Perhaps that is why they have such difficulty landing in the water. Be sure to look closely at all the fabulous details on him as well!
Flying Shorebird Pictures
This is a wonderful Vintage Seagull Image! It was scanned from an Antique German Print. Shown is a beautifully Illustrated Seagull soaring through the sky, with his Wings outstretched! It makes me wish I was at the Beach right now!! A lovely graphic.
Above is a Marvelous Gray Heron Image!! This gorgeous fellow looks so majestic flying through the air… such a graceful pose too! A wonderful Natural History Image.
I hope you enjoyed this marvelous curated collection! You might also like the 720+ Images in our Birds and Eggs Archives HERE or the 220+ Images in ur Natural History Archives HERE!
