Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1871 edition. Excerpt: ... INTRODUCTION. The Birds of Canada may be divided into two classes--Granivorous and Carnivorous. Some of our birds, hpwever, hold a middle nature, and partake of both. They may also be divided into six Orders--The Order of Raptores, or Birds of Prey; the Order of Scansores, or Climbers; the Order of Insessores, or Perchers; the Order of Rasores, or Scratchers; the Order of Grallatores, or Waders; the Order of Natatores, or Swimmers; and again subdivided into SubOrders, Families, and Sub-Families. Order I.--Raptores, or Birds of Prey.--Are mostly birds of large size, having strong hooked bills, sharp claws, great extent of wing, and powerful muscles; the females are generally larger than the males. Birds of this Order live in pairs, such as Eagles, Hawks, Buzzards, and Owls. Order II.--Scansores, or Climbers.--Birds of this Order have their toes in pairs--two in front and two behind--which especially facilitates climbing. The Cuculidce, or Cuckoo Family and the Picida, or Woodpecker Family, belong to this Order. ORDER III.--Insessores, or Perehers.--This Order embraces a greater number of species than any other, and comprehends all those birds which live habitually among trees, with the exception of birds of prey and climbing birdsAll true perching birds have three toes before, and one behind. ORDER IV.--Rasores, or Seratchers.--Comprises birds which live mainly upon the ground, and feed principally upon berries, buds, tender leaves, and grain; such as Doves, Grouse, Partridges, and Turkeys. ORDER V.--Grallatores, or Waders.--Birds of this Order live near the water, and comprise the Herons, Bitterns, Plovers, Snipes, Phalaropes, Sandpipers, and Rails. ORDER VI.--Natatores, or Swimmers.--Birds of this Order are especially fitted for aquatic...

Download or read book The Cooper s Hawk written by Robert Rosenfield and published by Hancock House. This book was released on 2018-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cooper's Hawk presents the general reader and professional biologists interested in birds and nature, with an authoritative account of the breeding biology of the what is perhaps the most abundant, backyard breeding raptor in North America. This urban status exists despite cross-generational human persecution through shooting of individuals and indirect felling of forests, their apparent preferred nesting habitat. Using conversational prose, the natural history of the bird's diet, including bird feeder use and disease concerns, courtship behavior, and the ecological themes of breeding density, reproductive success, and adult survivorship are described. There too is a focus on how and why fieldwork is conducted on this ubiquitous city dweller who preys mostly on birds, or ?urban fast food.? How urban birds may differ from their rural counterparts is addressed, and especially highlighted is the novel aspect of reproductive deceit in this red-eyed, blue-backed predator, as, unlike all other birds of prey studied to date, it is highly promiscuous. The text is complemented with original art and especially crisp photographs that demonstrate this bird's natural history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Eternity of Eagles The Human History of the Most Fascinating Bird in the World A compulsively readable natural and social history, An Eternity of Eagles is a profusely illustrated celebration of all things eagle, by a naturalist who has kept eagles himself and ridden with the eagle tribes of Central Asia. "His vivid description of an eagle, if it could imagine itself, is of a 'carnivorous Buddhist.' Through Bodio’s insights we get a strange glimpse of these other minds that share the earth with us." --Annie Proulx, author of The Shipping News and Brokeback Mountain From one of the foremost author/naturalists in the country, Stephen J. Bodio, comes a compulsively readable natural and social history of the most beautiful bird in the world -- the eagle, with a lengthy and admiring introduction by Annie Proulx. The Eagle’s Shadow traces our love-hate relationship to these “living dinosaurs,” from Neolithic rock art and Native American religion through the practices of Kazakh falconers who use them to hunt wolves, and to contemporary art and popular culture. Proulx sums up best the heart of this book: “Those of us who are interested in bird behavior beyond the feeder or the identification guide book find meager pickings when it comes to information. I am fortunate that my house faces a cliff with a river at the base where I can watch raptors, water fowl, and a hundred other species. The nests of a pair of bald eagles and another upriver inhabited by golden eagles are in sight from the breakfast table. I have plenty of books on birds, but the information on why the big eagles do what they do is hard to dig out. Eagle behavior is usually lumped together with the general behavior of the Accipitrids, but a single book focused on the rich lore and sweep of eagledom did not seem to exist… . Bodio’s beautifully written and authoritative book, Eagles, is a primary source of information as well as an omnium gatherum from literature, film and mythology concerning these large, striking birds.” Stephen Bodio was born and educated in Boston and has lived in a rural New Mexico village for over thirty years. He has traveled extensively in Europe, Africa, and Asia and has written five books.
