The text directly opposite the plates concisely describes each bird's habitat and key physical, behavioral, and vocal characteristics. All the larks are shown perching as well as in flight, and every swallow is pictured in flight from below. The most distinctive immature and nonbreeding plumages are included, and distribution maps show the range and frequency of each species.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Game-Birds Water-Fowl of South Africa In this volume I have endeavoured to give descriptions of the Game-Birds and Water-Fowl found within South African limits - that is to say, south of a line drawn through the Zambesi River from east to west. I trust that in all cases the illustrations will he sufficient to enable the sportsman readily to identify any Game-Bird he may shoot. It must be remembered, however, that immature birds often differ very much from those in adult plumage; I regret it was not possible to figure the birds in every stage. With regard to the habits of many species, I am greatly indebted to Serg. G. G. Davies, Cape Mounted Riflemen, whose excellent field-work has been of the greatest help to me. All notes referring to Pondoland and Griqualand have been communicated to me by him. My thanks are also due to Dr. J. W. B. Gunning, Director of the Transvaal Museum, Pretoria, and to Mr. Peringuey, Director of the Cape Town Museum, for the loan of many skins otherwise almost unobtainable, which were used by Sergeant Davies to illustrate the work. Much valuable information lias been obtained from the pages of the Journal of the South African Oniitholoyitte' Union, whose energetic Editor (Mr. A. K. Haagner) has done so much to further the study of ornithology in South Africa. Without their ready assistance, so willingly given, the labour of bringing out this work would have been more than doubled.
