Ferdinand Heine (9 March 1809 – 1894) was a German ornithologist and collector.
Heine had one of the largest private collection of birds in the nineteenth century. This is now housed at the Heineanum Halberstadt Museum in Halberstadt. Jean Cabanis wrote about the collection in Museum Heineanum. Verzeichniss der ornithologischen Sammlung des Oberamtmann Ferdinand Heine, auf Gut St. Burchard vor Halberstadt (1851).
Famous quotes containing the words ferdinand and/or heine:
“I fairly confess that, acting as nature and simplicity dictated, no sooner did I see the once loved bosom of my Ferdinand free from those deformed demons which had crept in and filled up the vacant space, than beholding my natural home once more the seat of innocence and truth, my heart joyfully danced into its delightful abode.”
—Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

—Heinrich Heine (1797–1856)
