Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Through the Year With Birds and Poets This anthology is the result of a desire on my part to collect poems and parts of poems relating to the bird life of our country. It seemed, therefore, consistent with that desire to select the writings of American and Canadian authors only, although by so doing much that is beautiful is necessarily omitted. Twelve divisions have been made, corresponding to the months of the year, and the selections relating to each bird have been placed in the month with which that bird is usually associated. It has seemed best to have all the selections on one subject together, although by so doing an apparent difference of opinion in some poems seems to exist concerning the association of birds with special months. This difference is easily understood when we realize that the poems have been written in many different parts of the country. I wish to express my appreciation of the kind interest shown in this work by many friends, and am especially grateful for the privileges freely given by the Harvard University Library and the Cambridge Public Library in the use of books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wild Birds of New York This little book is not expected to give everyone a complete history of the birds of this state. To do so would require an immense volume. But it is designed to bring to the attention of the reader the most common, the most interesting and the most valuable birds and to create an interest which it is hoped will be the means of starting many on a more extended study of our most interesting fauna. In the last few pages is a quite complete list of New York birds and concise data in regard to their occurrence. As might be expected considering the size and location of the state, a very great many species occur or have been taken here. The sandy beaches and mud flats of Long Island furnish an ideal retreat or resting place for all sorts of water fowl and shore birds. The Carolinian Area of the Austral Zone extends to Long Island and the Lower Hudson Valley; hence a great many southern species occur, species that otherwise would be very unusual in this latitude, such as Kentucky, Hooded and Worm-eating Warblers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Familiar Wild Birds This third volume, treating of the habits and appearance of our Familiar Wild Birds, is prepared on the same lines as its predecessors, which have met With such a Wide-spread welcome from the public. It is, unhappily, necessary to remark that, as these popular chapters go further through the list of British birds, they now come from time to time upon birds which, once familiar enough, are fast becoming no longer so. A few in these volumes are now nearly on the verge of extinction; but as their names are almost household words amongst the population of one part or the other of these islands, it has seemed all the more desirable on that account to place faithful descriptions and portraits before the reader) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book How to Attract Wild Birds About the Home Classic Reprint written by Niel Morrow Ladd and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Attract Wild Birds About the Home Men of forty, recalling their childhood, remember that boys then had only one idea when they found a bird's nest - to take the eggs out. If a bird were striking in colors or varity, or for any reason, its distinction was only an added incentive to kill it if possible. Men of forty have seen the wild pigeon, but see it no more. They can scarcely find now one pair of the brilliant, graceful and confiding wood ducks in the romantic haunts where there were hundreds. The handsome cardinal, with his cheery winter whistle, has practically disappeared in many localities where its flashes of color were the commonest sights. In the thousand lovely swales and birch edges of Southern New England the woodcock is now a rare bird save in the few days of migratory "flights," and then there is only a small fraction of the former abundance. The elegant and beautiful brown thrashers, our glorious "sandy mocking bird," nesting too conveniently low for cats and prying human eyes, had, a few years ago, almost disappeared from hundreds of thickets and fence foliage where the boys who are now men of forty could rely on finding them. The dramatic swoops and booms of the nighthawk, beating the coverts of the evening air and sweeping innumerable insects into his curious mouth, open from ear to ear, can be missed through a whole September now; the writer remembers upwards of 200 being bagged in a single sunset "shoot" in Virginia, in his boyhood. Scores of delicate and interesting small bird neighbors, bent only on adding beauty to the world and doing each his bit in ridding us of ugly insect pests, seemed, a few ears ago, to be headed toward the fate of the wild pigeon. But no one has noticed, in this process of bird destruction, any diminution in caterpillars and the scores of varieties of plant-destroying bugs. There has been no lack of tree and plant devouring insect pests of a hundred kinds. Indeed, while anything like a bug census is obviously impracticable, the same general observation which showed us that the birds were decreasing was equally convincing as to the increase, with equal steps, of noxious insects and their ravages.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Home Life, of Wild Birds: A New Method of the Study and Photography of Birds The semi-technical parts will naturally appeal most to stu dents, but I hope they will not be without interest to the general reader. The field of animal behavior in the direction of both observa tion and experiment is of boundless extent, while on the side of inference it is full of pitfalls. Even if I have not successfully avoided the latter in every case, I have been continually on my guard. My thanks are specially due to the publishers of this volume, who have forwarded my wishes in every possible way. I am also indebted to the editors of the Century Magazine, and of Bird Lore for permission to use certain material which has already appeared in their pages, and to all critics of the earlier edition who have appreciated my efforts.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wild Birds, Vol. 1: A Play in Three Acts All that these men needed was material. They wanted good plays. And the extraordinary thing was that they found them. Translation and imita tion gave them some. Invention gave them more. No one of these plays, it may be admitted, has quite the quality of Hamlet or King Oedipus. 'but ten fairly good plays are written now for one that was written thirty years ago and the result is due to the move ment that began in the 90's in England, the move ment to free the theatre from the tradition which makes it the substitute for the mediaeval cock-pit, and to reaffirm the tradition that makes it the great synthetic art through which the people in a mass can receive the highest emotional exaltation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of Bird Life MY purpose in writing these stories and sketches of birds has been that I might make others acquainted with the ways of some of the wild birds which have been of so much interest to me. Should they serve to give the reader a little more intimate ao quaintance with our feathered neighbors of the field and woodland, my main object will have been accomplished. These stories are not fanciful, but are true to bird life. The Arredondo Sparrow Hawk, ruffle-breast and Socrates were partien lar birds well known to others as to me. In the case of the Bob white family, and Bib-neck, the Plover, I have combined into the lives of a few birds incidents I have known to occur to many. The accounts of Visits to birds' nests, bird colonies and the like are given as they occurred. In the Appendixes some suggestions are offered to the student and the teacher.
