These are a some colorized bird pictures from the 19th century book Coloured figures of the birds of the British islands, vol. 2. The images were meant to be accurate for naturalists' use and so not only the birds were shown, but some details to show the habitat they were generally found in. 

These images were taken from an Old Books Illustrations post. There are more at that link.
