Download or read book List of Birds Found in West Virginia Classic Reprint written by Earle Amos Brooks and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-22 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from List of Birds Found in West Virginia The birds have been collected, mounted, and placed on exhibition in these rooms, and should be prized by those who have opportunity to study them. Few states have better collections. By additions, which we hope to make from time to time, the list will soon be complete, representing all the species and sub-species of birds that are found in West Virginia. The total list of birds, which the writer has compiled, includes about two hundred and fifty species that have been found by himself and other bird students within the borders of the state. There is no doubt that, after some years of observation, our list of West Virginia birds may include as many as three hundred species and sub-species. If this collection of 331 specimens, representing 193 species and sub species of West Virginia birds, is used as it should be, it will be such a help to those who seek to know more of the birds of our state that many persons will soon become interested, will be on the look-out for birds both common and rare, and will soon swell the list of our own native birds to far more than 250.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Food of West Virginia Birds Purpose. This bulletin on "The Food of West Virginia Birds" is published for the purpose of giving information concerning the feeding habits of these feathered friends of ours, to the fruit-grower, the grain-producer, the school children of our State, the owners of tracts of woodland and to all who depend for their daily bread upon the products of the soil. This bulletin is not a treatise on economic ornithology, but is a brief study in some of the relationships which our birds sustain to the wild and cultivated fruits, the vegetables and grains and grasses, the weeds and insects that have become our enemies, and the trees and lumber products, and has to do with some of the most vital questions that come before our agricultural communities. All these facts in regard to the food of our birds are given here with the hope that those who read may really know how much good our birds are doing and how carefully they should be protected. The Need. All who have noted the decrease in the numbers of our birds, the increase in the number of harmful insects, the exceeding great difficulties that must be met by those who raise grains, fruits or vegetables, and the attendant high cost of living know that there is need for the protection of birds. The scarcity of birds permits the multiplication of insects and the growth of weeds; these growing weeds hinder the farmers crops and cause him endless labor, while the ever-increasing hordes of noxious insects devour roots, stalks, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds that are produced in his fields; these great difficulties that lessen the production on all our farms add to the cost of all farm and forest products; prices are then much higher, and we all suffer in consequence. There is a great need for the diffusion of knowledge concerning our useful birds and a greater need that such protective measures be adopted that the birds may once more increase and take their place in the plans of nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Common Birds of Town and Country: With 114 Illustrations in Color and 52 in Black and White Range: Breeds from eastern North Dakota, central Minnesota, northwestern Michigan, southern Oh tario and southern New Brunswick to central Texas, southern Louisiana, central Alabama and central Georgia; winters from southern Mexico to Panama. The indigo bird is the brightest colored sparrow that visits the north, but one can hardly believe that the sprightly dandy, clad in his rich blue suit, is the mate of the inconspicuous brown bird that seeks assiduously to conceal herself in the leafy cover, as though a bit ashamed of the contrast between her working suit and the holiday garb of her spouse. The indigo is a frequenter of sprout land, of brushy thickets and of Open woodland. And the male is fond of singing his cheerful lay from the topmost twig of a tall shrub or tree, as though challenging the world to produce his equal. For such a dainty bird, the nest is a singularly inartistic structure and very carelessly built. It is placed in the crotch of some low leafy bush and is not at all difficult to find.

Download or read book I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings written by Maya Angelou and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-07-21 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a book as joyous and painful, as mysterious and memorable, as childhood itself. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings captures the longing of lonely children, the brute insult of bigotry, and the wonder of words that can make the world right. Maya Angelou’s debut memoir is a modern American classic beloved worldwide. Sent by their mother to live with their devout, self-sufficient grandmother in a small Southern town, Maya and her brother, Bailey, endure the ache of abandonment and the prejudice of the local “powhitetrash.” At eight years old and back at her mother’s side in St. Louis, Maya is attacked by a man many times her age—and has to live with the consequences for a lifetime. Years later, in San Francisco, Maya learns that love for herself, the kindness of others, her own strong spirit, and the ideas of great authors (“I met and fell in love with William Shakespeare”) will allow her to be free instead of imprisoned. Poetic and powerful, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings will touch hearts and change minds for as long as people read. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings liberates the reader into life simply because Maya Angelou confronts her own life with such a moving wonder, such a luminous dignity.”—James Baldwin From the Paperback edition.
