Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Birds' Eggs: A Handbook of British Oology About the year 1852 I first fell a victim to a mania for collecting nothing came amiss, from a cricket to a coin but the ruling passion at that time found its highest satis faction in the acquisition of butterflies and moths, with a dash of beetles thrown in by way of a relish. With the old fever still lingering in my veins, I Visited the seaside in 1871; to my intense disgust, hardly a specimen of any description was to be obtained. Feeling the impossibility of dragging out an inactive existence for four weeks with no alleviation but that offered by the morning swim, I began to cast about for something to give zest to my rambles, when the idea of forming a collection of British Birds' Eggs came to me as a welcome relief. Without delay I set to work in search of nests, having no knowledge to guide me, beyond what I had picked up hap-hazard during my entomological excursions, which amounted to little more than an acquaintance with the notes and general appearance of some of our commoner birds, and the size and colouring of a few of their eggs. As might be expected, the whole of the eggs first collected were blown with two holes, and the discovery that I could expel the contents, by means of a blowpipe, from one hole, was made in total ignorance that this plan had long been in general practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nests and Eggs of British Birds: When and Where to Find Them; Being a Handbook to the Oology of the British Islands Tiie following pages deal exclusively with the birds that breed within the confines of the British Archi pelago; consequently the student will find several familiar species omitted, the Fieldfare and the Redwing for example, they having no claim whatever to be con sidered in a work which professes to be a Handbook to the Oology of our islands alone. The idea of a work on the Nests and Eggs of British Birds occurred to me some twelve years ago; and from that time to the present I have been carefully collecting facts, examining specimens, and so on, with the object of forminga comprehensive handbook to British Oology. The results of my studies are now presented to the reader in the following pages. Most of my information has been obtained from personal observation; and with very few exceptions I have taken with my own hands nests and eggs of all our British species; whilst with most of them I have extended my observations over periods of many years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before modern binoculars and cameras made it possible to observe birds closely in the wild, many people collected eggs as a way of learning about birds. Serious collectors called their avocation "oology" and kept meticulous records for each set of eggs: the bird's name, the species reference number, the quantity of eggs in the clutch, the date and location where the eggs were collected, and the collector's name. These documented egg collections, which typically date from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, now provide an important baseline from which to measure changes in the numbers, distribution, and nesting patterns of many species of birds. In Oology and Ralph's Talking Eggs, Carrol L. Henderson uses the vast egg collection of Ralph Handsaker, an Iowa farmer, as the starting point for a fascinating account of oology and its role in the origins of modern birdwatching, scientific ornithology, and bird conservation in North America. Henderson describes Handsaker's and other oologists' collecting activities, which included not only gathering bird eggs in the wild but also trading and purchasing eggs from collectors around the world. Henderson then spotlights sixty of the nearly five hundred bird species represented in the Handsaker collection, using them to tell the story of how birds such as the Snowy Egret, Greater Prairie Chicken, Atlantic Puffin, and Wood Duck have fared over the past hundred years or so since their eggs were gathered. Photos of the eggs and historical drawings and photos of the birds illustrate each species account. Henderson also links these bird histories to major milestones in bird conservation and bird protection laws in North America from 1875 to the present.
