Book excerpt: Excerpt from A First Book Upon the Birds of Oregon and Washington: A Pocket Guide and Pupil's Assistant in a Study of Most of the Land Birds and a Few of the Water Birds of These States Rogers States When this book was issued in 1902, comparatively little was known of the birds common to even considerable areas in the large territory covered by its title. Since that time, a fair knowledge of the birds common to such areas has been obtained. In this new issue, separate lists and descriptions of the more or less common birds of Puget Sound, of the territory east of the Cascades, and of Southern and Southeastern Oregon, are provided on pages 300 to 308. The author believes that the book will be much more serviceable for these localities than it has hitherto been.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution of Colors of North American Land Birds The present paper has been written more with the hope of stimulating thought and inciting research in a new and as yet almost untrodden field of ornithological inquiry, than with the expectation of reaching definite results. The subject is as yet too new and difficult to be reduced to even the semblance of an exact science, and accordingly all the views here set forth are more or less provisional and tentative. I have constantly proceeded upon the assumption that a poor theory is better than no theory, provided it be not considered as final, since it affords an opening wedge for the further study of a subject. Accordingly many of the views here set forth are hardly to be considered as more than guesses, and it is expected that future study will serve to show their fallacy. If they lead to this further study, however, and to more exact and comprehensive work by others, I shall be glad to see them overturned and their places filled by more worthy hypotheses. In the preparation of the work I have received much valuable assistance, which I here take pleasure in acknowledging. Much of the examination of specimens was done at the United States National Museum, the authorities of which kindly placed their collection of birds at my disposal. To Mr. Robert Ridgway I am indebted for innumerable personal favors during my stay in Washington. His Manual of North American Birds has formed the systematic basis for this paper.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birds of the Japanese Empire During the last ten years I have been making a collection of Japanese Birds, and have accumulated a carefully selected series of more than two thousand skins, out of the many thousands that have passed through my hands. I am indebted to Captain Blakiston for the most interesting of these specimens, some of which were in the Swinhoe Collection, whilst others were sent to me from time to time during the many years' residence of Captain Blakiston at Hakodadi. I am also indebted to the late Mr. Harry Pryer for many skins of birds from Southern Japan, and at his death, after many years' resi dence in Yokohama, when his collection came into my hands, I began to prepare my notes on Japanese Birds for the press. I have also to acknowledge my indebtedness to Mr. Heywood Jones for a small collection Of Skins from F uji-yama, and to Mr. Ringer, of Nagasaki, for some very rare birds from Kiu-siu. I am much indebted to the Curator of the Norwich Museum for arranging their valuable collection Of Japanese skins so that it could be examined without difficulty; and I have to thank Dr. Stejneger of Washington for valuable information respecting the interesting collections made in Southern Japan by Messrs. J ouy and Smith. I also take this Opportunity of thanking the Curators of the Museums of Leyden, Bremen, Frankfort, Paris, Vienna, Philadelphia, and Washington for showing me many interesting birds from the Japanese Empire.
