This book was released on 2018-02-18 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A List of the Birds of Eastern North America Which occur in New England, Illinois, and Florida. Taking these States to form the points of an imaginary triangle, a somewhat crude idea of the range of species which occur within this area may be obtained, as it is evident that birds which occur in Illinois, New England, and Florida must, in all probability, also occur in most of the intermediate States; whereas those which are recorded from only one of these localities would probably be species which only touched within the limits of this area during their migrations, or birds of comparatively local distribution. Of course, a number of the species do not occur in either New England, Illinois, or Florida, as the list includes all birds which are known.

Download or read book Birds of Massachusetts and Other New England States Vol 1 written by Edward Howe Forbush and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds of Massachusetts and Other New England States, Vol. 1: Water Birds, Marsh Birds and Shore Birds Many papers on the birds of Massachusetts have been published within the last fifty years, notably the Birds of Massachusetts, by Messrs. Reginald Heber Howe J r., and Glover M. Allen, but most of them are mere local lists with annotations, and not one of them contains adequate descriptions or colored plates of the species. The de mand for such information as plates and descriptions alone can furnish has grown in sistent with the years. Not only do people of rural communities seek such knowledge; the great and increasing army of bird students also requires it. Birds may be ranked among the noblest forms of life. Experience has shown that without special protection at the hands of man many species are likely to become extinct. Some of those that are hunted as game now need special care. Licenses to hunt certain birds within the borders of the Commonwealth are issued to citizens annually, and the number of such hunters now approximates one hundred thousand. Probably most of these hunters would be unable to recognize all the birds that they are privileged to shoot under their licenses, to say nothing of the large number of species that are protected by law. Many people who hunt birds desire such information concerning them as it is purposed to include in the present volume. The book is intended, therefore, to fill a long-felt want. The objects of the work are: (1) to interest the general public of Massachusetts and New England in birds and their rational conservation, (2) to provide our citizens with a means of identifying birds in the field or in the hand, (3) to furnish such other information regarding birds as the people desire and need. Long experience as State Ornithologist in answering their questions has perhaps qualified the author in some degree for the latter service.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pocket Guide to the Common Land Birds of New England The student may occasionally be puzzled by finding, after one description of a bird in the key, the words either sex, and after another descrip tion of the same bird the word female. In some cases, as, for example, the pine warbler, the females vary widely, sometimes quite closely resembling the male, sometimes being decidedly unlike them. Hence two descriptions of a female are necessary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A List of the Birds of New Hampshire In the following pages an attempt has been made to bring to gether a list of the species of birds known to have occurred with in the State of New Hampshire during historic times, together with a general account of their distribution, faunal position, times of migration, and, in case of the rarer species, a detailed list of the known instance of occurrence. The present list can be at best only preliminary, and there remains much yet to be done in 'the way of obtaining more complete information as to the de tails of distribution and migration, and particularly so in the case of the water birds. In addition to much that has been already recorded in many books and periodicals, a considerable body of unpublished facts relative to the birds of the State is here included, based not only on the writer's personal observations, but also on those of a num ber of ornithologists who have contributed most generously of their notes, and to whom due acknowledgment is made.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annotated List of Birds of Wellesley and Vicinity: Comprising the Land-Birds and Most of the Inland Water-Fowl of Eastern Massachusetts The following list is designed especially for the use of students in Wellesley College, and others interested in the bird-life of Wellesley and surrounding towns, its chief purpose being to give an approximately correct idea of the bird-life of the district, and serve as a convenient pocket guide to observations. Its field of usefulness, however, especially with reference to the land-birds, is not confined to the area mentioned, but comprises the greater part of Eastern Massachusetts. The list is based upon personal observations, the readily accessible published records of occurrence of the rarer species, and notes furnished by a number of observers, collectors, and taxidermists having a practical acquaintance with the birds of the district. The works treating of New England birds have also been used, when necessary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birds of Springfield and Vicinity With all the reliable text books on New England birds, a local list may seem to many uncalled for, but we sometimes find bird life different in short distances. For instance, less than fifty miles to the south and west of Springfield, there is a de cided change in Summer residents, in the latter direction undoubtedly accounted for by reason of variation in altitude, but in the former the reason is hot'so apparent, at least why the difference should be so marked in so short a distance and with practically the same Hora, temperature, and altitude.

This book was released on 2016-12-20 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds of Massachusetts and Other New England States, Vol. 2 Mr. James S. Cox, treasurer of the J. S. Cushing Company of the Norwood Press, the printers of this and of the previous volume, has given the most cordial cooperation and extended every courtesy. Mr. Cox has been unremitting in his efforts to expedite the publication of the book, and has extended every possible facility to the author. Dr. A. W. Gilbert, Commissioner of Agriculture, has given the project his cordial support and has continued to advocate before the legislative committees appropriations adequate for the work. His initiative and the support of the members of the Depart ment has made possible the financing of the undertaking. It now remains to express the most grateful appreciation of the author for the services rendered by several hundred observers and collaborators in the northeastern States and the maritime Provinces of Canada, who during the past ten years have corresponded with him and transmitted many thousands of notes on bird migration, unusual occurrences, descriptions of habits, molts, etc., many of which have been utilized in the preparation of this volume. Many excellent photographs also have been received, some of which are used for illustrating the work. Due credit for these is given in the captions under the illustrations. Since the above was written Louis Agassiz Fuertes, the premier American portrayer of bird life, who painted the pictures which are reproduced in this volume, has passed into the Great Beyond. It is an irony of fate that he, having explored great wildernesses of North Merica, South America and Africa, having visited Europe and travelled many thousands of miles by sea and land in his favorite pursuits, should be instantly killed in his native state while driving his own car over a grade crossing. His untimely death came as a great shock. It was a poignant blow to a host of admiring friends. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Notes on New England Birds Classic Reprint written by Henry D. Thoreau and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on New England Birds It may be well here to point out the office of the brackets, as differentiated from parentheses, since their use is not always understood by readers. Brackets, as used nowadays by most writers and print ers, show the interpolations of the editor, while the parentheses are the author's own. Thus, in the present volume, a question-mark in brackets, indicates that the editors of the Journal were in doubt as to whether they had rightly interpreted Thoreau's hand writing, but the same in parentheses, is Thoreau's own query. So, too, in the notes, those which are bracketed are the editor's, while the unbracketed notes are later an notations by Thoreau, usually in pencil, upon the pages of his manuscript journals. The editor has felt free to quote or paraphrase the notes of the published Journal, for a large share of which he was primarily responsi ble, and he believes that Mr. Torrey will pardon him if in a few cases he has used the latter's phraseology without giving specific credit for it. The present notes are much fuller than those in the Journal, the plan of which did not admit of extensive annotation.
