FAIRY TERN 39.TIF

Download
Fairy Tern, Orakei Bay 1873 - Hundreds of bird specimens added to Auckland Museum's collections by founding curator Thomas Cheeseman were shot by his younger brother, William Joseph, and their labels bear the tag "W.J.C." The museum could not afford a taxidermist, but Cheeseman's sister Emma learnt the skill and prepared many of the specimens.
Shot on assignment for New Zealand Geographic Issue 162 March - April 2020.
