This image shows two bright birds perched on a green plant with pink flowers. The birds have black wings, yellow chests, and striped heads. The leaves are detailed with veins, and the flowers have delicate petals. The birds are labeled as a *Chestnut-sided Warbler*, and the plant is called *Verbascum blattaria*. The whole scene looks carefully drawn, with smooth colors. Look up engraving next to see how artists like this made precise prints.
