Excerpt: ... become acceptable to it; but it has hardly as yet had an opportunity for the cultivation of a taste for these productions. In early spring it feeds very extensively on the tender, fresh buds of young willows; and then the salicine in these communicates more or less of a bitter flavour to the flesh, just as, in Labrador, I have found the flesh of the Canace canadensis and Lagopus albus greatly injured in flavour by the resinous buds on which they feed during spring and summer. I have heard three distinct notes from Lophortyw gambeli, and only three, though there may be more. The first is the common cry, uttered on all occasions of alarm, or to call or keep a bevy together. It is a single, mellow, clear " chink," with somewhat of a metallic resonance, quickly repeated an indefinite number of times. I may remark, by the way, that it is so exactly similar to the common note of Guiraca melanocqzkala, that I have been more than once deceived. The next kind is a clear, loud, energetic whistle, resembling, to my ear, the syllables " killink, kill link." This is chiefly heard during the pairing-season, when the male in some secluded spot is busy paying his addresses to and trying to win the favour of his chosen partner. It is analogous to the " bob-white " that has earned for Ortyw virginianus its popular appellation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best known as the author of the pioneering Key to North American Birds, Elliott Coues (1842-99) was one of America's most renowned but least understood ornithologists and historians-as well as a naturalist, anatomist, taxonomist, writer and editor, Army surgeon on the American frontier, occultist, and the youngest person ever to become a member of the National Academy of Sciences.
