“Animal Families” was published by the venerable Austrian firm Piatnik; no date is given. The artwork is, however, credited: “After the original paintings by Hubert Lechner (Vienna Academy).”
There are ten “families”: Deer, Domestic Animals, Fresh-Water Fish, Salt-Water Fish, African Animals, Birds of Prey, Parrots, Humming-Birds, Finches, and Indian Animals. A curious system of classification, but as good as any other, I suppose.

I’ve always thought of the mockingbird as a bird of prey.
