Dr Henry Linckmeyer Saxby (19 April 1836 – 4 September 1873) was an English born physician and ornithologist, most famous for his work in Shetland.
To many Shetlanders, Jessie Margaret Edmondston Saxby, a prolific author, is the better known of the two.
Henry Saxby was the island doctor for most of his residence on Unst.
He had started work on a manuscript, eventually published in 1874 as The Birds of Shetland after it was edited and annotated by Stephen Saxby, who was then a vicar in Somerset.
One of his sons was Thomas Edmondston Saxby (1869–1952), who was also a physician and an ornithologist.
