Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birds of Virginia This book only treats of those birds which are known to breed within the limits of our State, though many other species winter with us and remain for a short time during their migrations northward and southward, each spring and fall. If my ornithological friends find it of help as a reference, or if in any way it should help to promote interest in the native birds throughout our State, I will feel amply repaid for the time spent upon it.

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.

No gorgeous peacock hud dled against its one chimney, but a family of blue pigeons, finding the pigeon-cote chilly, circled about the solitary chimney, and were as merry as if they had been great splendid peacocks instead of the humble little birds that they were. The tall holly trees in all their Christmas glory of red and green, on each side of the little porch, gave the place its name of Holly Lodge. From its Windows.

Download or read book Wild Birds of New York Classic Reprint written by Chester A. Reed and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 60 pages. 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.
