Description

Drawing depicting: Dendrocygna arcuata -- Wandering Whistling Duck [Whistling duck], The drawing does not have Richter's strength and facilty of line; at the same time it is more complete and coherent than anything else attributed to Gould's hand in these Albums., Birds adequately drawn, pastel coloring added, with rough figuring of feather pattern.
