Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of British Birds, Vol. 1 of 3 From the lateness of the period, in reference to the printing of these volumes, at which the occurrence of two examples of this Species in Ireland became known to me, I was only able to introduce a figure and a short notice on a single leaf in its place among the Eagles. The fur ther particulars here inserted may prove acceptable. This Eagle, very similar in its appearance to our well known Golden Eagle, but almost one-third smaller in size.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of British Birds, Vol. 1 Such a mass of material as has been furnished in the man ner indicated, enables the ornithologist of the present day also to rectify many statements made by his predecessors. In no respect, perhaps, is this fact more manifest than in determin ing the geographical range of species, whether in the fullest sense of the word British, or only occasional visitors to our shores. It will be remembered that precision on this point was made by Mr. Yarrell a prominent feature of his work and, when the amount of information at his disposal is taken into consideration, it must be conceded that he was therein eminently successful. The excellent example which he himself set by adding to or correcting statements bearing upon this important subject, in his successive Editions, will not be lost upon the new editor, nor will the equally suggestive alterations in the arrangement of certain species be neglected by him. When Mr. Yarrell had satisfied himself that his original allocation of certain forms had been erroneous, he did not hesitate to correct the mistake - as, for instance, the Pratincole and the Phalaropes, placed in his First Edition among the Rails and Coots, but subsequently, with unquestionable propriety, referred to the Plovers and Sandpipers. The editor, therefore, will not scruple to make such systematic changes as may be considered to be satisfactorily established. He is, however, desirous of stat ing that, in cases which may be still regarded as doubtful, he will, whatever be his own predilections, preserve the original order of Mr. Yarrell, thinking it a lesser evil to continue a possibly or even a probably erroneous arrange ment, than to offer a new one which time may show to be no improvement. The lax method, adopted by older writers on British Ornithology, of admitting any chance straggler from distant lands to a place beside the real inhabitants of this country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Birds for Cages and Aviaries: A Handbook Relating to All British Birds, Which May Be Kept in Confinement "What, another bird-book!" someone may feel tempted to exclaim, on reading the title of the present volume; "surely there are enough of them and to spare." But is that so? When a subject is practically inexhaustible and as yet only its merest outside fringe has been touched upon, it is obvious that there is still something to be said about it, especially as new facts are being noted every day, and discoveries made that were undreamt of even a short time before. Further, there is as much to unlearn as to learn. If history has been built up out of fable, as some assert is the case, much more is this true of Natural History, which is founded, not only on fable, but on ignorance and prejudice as well. Error is tenacious of existence - as hard to kill, indeed as the proverbial cat - and one reason for this is that when the average person has accepted or imagined a mistake, cuddled, petted, and made much of it for years and years not to speak of pledging his credit on its behalf, it takes a good deal of persuading to induce him to cast it adrift and transfer his affections to the truth.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of British Birds, Vol. 1: With Coloured Illustrations of Their Eggs Interbreeding may or may not mean cross-breeding. Wherever the interbreeding which habitually takes place between the individuals of a species has not ceased, any differences between them can only be subspecific. Subspecies may be defined as groups in which the interbreeding which habitually takes place between individuals in a Species has not yet ceased, but takes place along the whole line of its geographical distribution, though seldom between the two extremes.xii IN troduction.
