Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birds of Ontario: Being a Concise Account of Every Species of Bird Known to Have Been Found in Ontario, With a Description of Their Nest and Eggs The first edition of "The Birds of Ontario" had its origin in the Hamilton Association, a local scientific society of which I am one of the oldest members. In the spring of 1885, I read the introductory part of this book as a paper at one of the ordinary meetings. So few people devote any time to the study of Ornithology, that the subject was quite new to the Association, and, at the request of those present, I afterwards supplemented the paper with a record of the names of all the birds observed during my excursions near the city. By giving a technical description of each, I hoped to enable anyone desirous of pursuing the study to identify those birds likely to be found in the same district. The whole was subsequently published in book form by the Association, under the name of "The Birds of Ontario." Each member received a copy, and the balance of the issue was placed in the hands of the booksellers, but the number published was limited, and the book is now entirely out of the market. The kind reception of the first edition by the public, and the numerous inquiries which have recently been made for copies of the book, have induced me to prepare this second edition, which I hope may be equally fortunate in meeting with public favor. In the first edition the accounts of the birds were, to a great extent, the result of my own observations made in the vicinity of Hamilton, where I have resided for the past forty years. Nearly all of our native birds being migratory, the record given of each species was necessarily incomplete. Some were mentioned as winter visitors, others as summer residents, and a numerous class as spring and autumn migrants, visiting southern Ontario on their annual journey to and from their breeding places farther north. In the present edition, it has been my object to place on record, as far as possible, the name of every bird that has been observed in Ontario; to show how the different species are distributed throughout the Province; and, especially, to tell where they spend the breeding season.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds of Ontario in Relation to Agriculture N O reliable estimate has ever been made of the annual loss to the farmers Of Ontario by the depredations of insects. In the United States much careful attention has been given to the subject, and in a report of the Department Of Agriculture at Washington, issued in 1912, Dr. Henshaw estimates the loss to the agricultural interests of that country at upwards of Our losses will certainly be as large proportionately. This loss is caused chiefly by reason of an insufficiency of bird life on our cultivated lands; experience the world over has shown that as bird life decreases insects increase; also, that birds are more efficient in keeping down insect pests than are all other agencies, natural and artificial, combined.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds of Eastern Canada Of late years there has been a great awakening of interest in the subject of natural history. 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. The ornithological side is one from which the problems of nature can be successfully attacked from so many standpoints and in so many ways that there is interesting and valuable work for all to accomplish according to individual taste or opportunity. Those who incline towards systematic work can split their definitions as finely as human powers of observation permit. The animal psychologist can develop his problems as far as ingenuity can devise methods for experimentation. The ordinary nature lover can observe and note as painstakingly as opportunity permits; he can record information of scientific as well as popular interest, take pleasure in observing passing beauties, train his powers of observation, and acquire a knowledge that greatly increases his capacity for appreciation of nature. Even the unsentimental, practical man, who has little outward sympathy with abstract beauty, has his attention attracted by the evident economic value of birds. The "Birds of Eastern Canada" has been written to awaken and, where it already exists, to stimulate an interest, both aesthethic and practical, in the study of Canadian birds and to suggest the sentimental, scientific, and economic value, of that study; to assist in the identification of native species; and to furnish the economist with a ready means of determining bird friend from bird foe that he may act intelligently towards them and to the best interest of himself and the country at large; to present in a readily accessible form reliable data upon which measures of protective legislation may be based; to point out some of the pitfalls that have caught the inexperienced in the past; and to suggest methods for their future avoidance. Scope Of The Book. This work covers all the birds that the ordinary observer is likely to meet with between the Atlantic coast and the prairies north of the International Boundary. This region forms a natural zoological area (see Distribution, page 8), including what may be called the eastern woodlands of Canada, a fairly homogeneous section, physically, geographically, and zoologically. The prairies are radically different in character and, consequently, exhibit an entirely different aspect of bird life.

This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birds of the Vicinity of Lake Nipissing, Ontario The observations from which this paper1 is prepared were made intermittently over a number of years. The first writer lived at North Bay up to October, 1926, except for the months of July and August of each year, and made his first records of bird observations in 1922. From 1924 to 1926 spring migration records are fairly complete, as observations were made almost daily from early April to early June of those years. Autumn work was much less completely recorded, and absence of fall records does not necessarily imply absence of the species. Brief visits to North Bay in later years have supplied some additional information, and the months of June and July, 1929, were spent at Frank's Bay. All these observations have been carefully edited. Many observations were made with the assistance of Mr. Charles Ramsay, formerly of North Bay Normal School.

This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Distribution of Breeding Birds in Ontario Excellent local lists and other valuable avifaunal records have been published, however, especially during more recent years, of the birds of certain localities within the province. Although many of these accounts (for example those published by Snyder from the regions of Lake Nipi Lake King township, and Long point) contain information from previously unknown regions ornithologically, they have appeared in a variety of publications, making it virtually impossible to obtain definite distributional information without a laborious search of the literature. The authors have attempted to bring together these scattered writings on Ontario birds and as a result there is on file at the Royal Ontario Museum of Zoology an index to the literature pertaining to the ornithology of the province which is gradually nearing completion. This bibliography was commenced by J. L. Baillie in 1924 and already there are more than ten thousand specific cards on file from upwards of one thousand titles. These records form the basis of the present account and those to which we have referred will be found in the list of literature cited.

Download or read book A Catalogue of Canadian Birds written by Montague Chamberlain and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Catalogue of Canadian Birds: With Notes on the Distribution of the Species Tn object of this Catalogue is to bring together the names of all the birds that have been discovered within the boundaries of the Dominion, from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific, and north to the Arctic; to present these in the system of nomenclature and in the sequence now generally adopted by American Ornithologists, and to give the geographical distribution of each species. This latter portion of the work has not been accomplished very satisfactorily, for, although considerable labor and care have been devoted to the preparation of the notes on distribution, they are not at all complete, and I fear that, on further investigation, some of them will be proven incorrect. There is no way at present of avoiding these defects. All the information that is now obtainable has been procured; the works of the older authors have been freely drawn upon, as well as those of recent writers, and a number of MSS. reports have been prepared expressly for the present work. But the greater portion of the country - immense stretches of forest and prairie and sea coast - have received little attention from Ornithologists, while even the more settled districts have not yet been fully investigated, leaving a large amount of fieldwork still to be done before anything like a complete account of the Birds of Canada can be produced. I am quite aware that this opinion regarding the narrow limits of our knowledge of Canadian birds is opposed to that held by some of the leading scientific men of the Dominion, who consider that all that can be learned about our fauna is now known to science.
