More and more people are beginning to realize the pleasure and profit that can be derived from Observation Of common natural Objects. In this growing field Of nature study, few subjects have attracted so much popular attention as birds and few forms Of life appeal so strongly to the aesthetic sense. They are beautiful; they arouse curiosity; their elusiveness piques the imagination; and by presenting constantly new aspects they never become commonplace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds of Eastern North America This volume is in reality but an extension of, an enlargement upon and a combining of the "show me" properties of "Bird Guide - Land Birds" and "Bird Guide - Water Birds." The kind reception and enormous sale of these smaller books have fully justified my belief that a good, accurate illustration is worth pages of text for conveying an idea of the appearance, of a bird or for identifying one seen in the field. My schooling in this line was gained in the time when an occasional inaccurate woodcut served only to relieve the monotony of the solid pages of text. In those days the birds were "collected" and, with the specimen in hand, it required only time to discover what it was, from the pages of the old reliable "Coues' Key." Birds were more plentiful then and bird students comparatively few. Obviously such methods are impossible now when the birds are fewer and students numbered by the hundreds of thousands. A good pair of bird glasses and a good book will enable the bird student now to see and identify hundreds of species, and that without harming the creatures in the least. In fact, several enthusiasts have written me that they became so familiar with the. birds by means of pictures that upon visiting new localities and seeing new birds they were able to correctly name nearly all at first sight without referring to a book. Bird study is not a fad. It is a recreation and a most useful one. Its importance is shown by the fact that it is one of the requirements of teachers in nearly all states.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Canadian Bird Book for School and Home Hast thou named all the birds without a gun? - 0, be my friend and teach me to be thine - Emerson. Man - as a destroying agent - is indeed mighty when attacking large creatures, but against insects, with their activity and enor mous powers of reproduction, he is forced to look for help. One very powerful ally we have not yet seriously encouraged - the birds - those beautiful, tuneful, enthusiastic destroyers of insects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue Canadian Birds In compiling this catalogue of the birds of Canada, the author has endeavoured to bring together facts on the range and nesting habits of all birds known to reside in, migrate to or visit, the northern part of the continent. In addition to the Dominion of Canada he has therefore included Newfoundland, Greenland and Alaska. The nomenclature and the numbers given in the latest edition and supplements of the Check-list published by the American Ornithologists' Union have been made the basis of arrangement of the catalogue. The order followed in the notes on each bird is from east to west. Greenland is generally cited first and British Columbia and Alaska last. As the catalogue is intended to be a popular and practical one, the English names of the birds are placed first, but the species are arranged in their scientific order and in accordance with the latest nomenclature. While recognizing the differences upon which many of the technical names have been based, the writer holds that some of them, depending as they do upon local and almost upon individual variations from a common type, possess from any practical or educational standpoint but a minor value. To an investigator of changes resulting from environment such differences are of great interest, but to any one anxious only to obtain the facts in regard to the distribution of our birds as readily determinable, they are unimportant. Since the publication of the Fauna Borcali Americana by Swain-son and Richardson, in 1831, no attempt has been made to produce a work dealing with the ornithology of the region now embraced in the Dominion of Canada. In the work referred to, the authors include separate notices of all birds that had been recorded north of Lat. 48 . Two hundred and forty species are described and twenty-seven additional West Coast species are added, making a total of two hundred and sixty-seven species known at that date. No attempt was subsequently made to catalogue the birds of Canada as a whole until 1887, when Mr. Montague Chamberlain, of St. John, New Brunswick, published A Catalogue of Canadian Birds with Notes on the distribution of the Species.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bird-Nesting in North-West Canada The only time I have been able to devote to this work was during evenings after business hours, and not only had the book to be written, but the illustrations had also to be drawn at night, consequently the work has taken longer to execute than I had anticipated, and I wish to thank my subscribers for their patience and indulgence in waiting so long for their copies. Though the title of the book would lead readers to expect the work to be purely Oological, it will be found to treat on matters not strictly Ornithological. I have branched off and given descriptions of the habits of the more important animals inhabiting the region traversed, and have also given a de scription of the scenery between Toronto and Vancouver.
