Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Birds' Eggs and Nests The principle adopted in the illustrations has been to omit all representations of eggs either white or nearly white in colour, in order to husband space for the admission of a greater number of those char acterised by varied colours and markings. On the same ground, although it was earnestly desired by the artist to give more than one representation of some of the very marked variations occurring in the eggs of several species, he has been compelled to content him self with selecting and figuring the most typical or normal forms in all such cases. All the illustrations given have been carefully drawn from unquestionable specimens, and Mr. Coleman desires to acknowledge in this place the assistance which, in this matter, has been afforded him by that excellent and accurate practical naturalist, Mr. F. Bond. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Popular History of British Birds Eggs After the shortening days of autumn and the bitter winds of winter, what a thrill of pleasurable emotion do the simplest harbingers of Spring excite, - the budding hedges, the first pale primrose or scented violet, springing in copsewood, amid the amber shoots of richest velvet moss! "Nor rural sights alone, but rural sounds, Exhilarate the spirit;" the warble of the Hedge Sparrow, or the Thrush's song in the early morning, as, with spotted breast turned to the sun, he pours from some tree-top his noble melody.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nests and Eggs of Familiar British Birds, Described and Illustrated: With an Account of the Haunts and Habits of the Feathered Architects, and Their Times and Modes of Building Ir may at first strike our young readers that this is a question very easily answered; if they think so, let them try What sort of an answer they can give to it, and if they break down in the definition, we will endeavour to help them, as we are told in the old fable, Jupiter did the waggoner; but it is best for young people to try, and, for that matter, old people too; let them never believe that they can't do a thing - where there's a will there's a way. Many a boy that will take a deal of pains, and incur no inconsiderable risk of life and limb, to climb up a tree after a bird's nest, finds it too much trouble to read and learn about the habits of the creature he is thus ready to deprive of its warm comfortable home and beautiful eggs. He cannot tell you, if you ask him, of What the nest is composed, nor how, nor when it was built, much less can he answer the question which we have just put to our readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Smaller British Birds: With Descriptions of Their Nests, Eggs, Habits We have appended to our description of each group of Birds a few simple directions for their treatment in confinement, not because we advocate their being so kept, but that we would make their lives as healthful and happy, when they are, as circumstances will permit. Some of them, we feel sure, have as much enjoyment, and far less privation, in the cage and aviary, as though they were free to go and come at will, and to birds bred in confinement, and unaccustomed to provide for themselves, release would be positive cruelty. But too often Feathered Pets suffer and die for want of proper care and attention to their nature and necessities, and we would press upon the consciences of those who keep birds, for their pleasure or profit, that they cannot neglect them without offending Him unnoted by whom no Sparrow falls to the ground.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nests and Eggs of Non-Indigenous British Birds: Or Such Species That Do Not Breed Within the British Archipelago The present work forms the companion volume to The Nests and Eggs of British Birds, and renders the subject of British Oology complete, so far as our knowledge now extends. It deals exclusively with the nidification of the birds that do not breed in the British Archipelago, but visit our islands regularly in winter, pass the coasts on passage, or pay them their more or less irregular visits as wanderers from their normal areas of dispersal. I have spared no pains to make the subject as complete and full of information as possible; but, as the student will eventually discover, there still remains a vast amount of work to be done, which will take years and years of further study to accomplish. Of the birds that breed in civilized areas our information is fairly complete, although even here many details are wanting respecting the habits of birds in the pairing and breeding seasons, the number of broods reared, and the duration of the periods of incubation. When we come to deal with species that spend the summer in the Arctic regions, or dwell permanently in deserts, and in countries little explored by the scientific naturalist, our want of information becomes only too woefully apparent. I am sanguine enough to hope that by pointing out the deficiencies in our knowledge, I may stimulate observation, and thus help in one way to reduce them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birds of the British Isles and Their Eggs The reception of the previous series justifies the continuation of a work which provides accurate coloured figures of all but the very rare birds; the ornithological draughtsmanship of Archibald Thorburn, by whom most of the pictures were drawn, speaks for itself. In a book of this size it is not possible to figure a sufficient number of eggs to represent the great range Of variation, but a type of egg of most birds which nest in Britain has been included, drawn to average size; in the present series white or very light self coloured eggs have been omitted, size being stated in the text. To figure all variations of eggs of certain species would fill every plate and still the range would be incomplete the book is not intended solely for the egg collector.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Birds' Eggs: A Handbook of British Oology About the year 1852 I first fell a victim to a mania for collecting nothing came amiss, from a cricket to a coin but the ruling passion at that time found its highest satis faction in the acquisition of butterflies and moths, with a dash of beetles thrown in by way of a relish. With the old fever still lingering in my veins, I Visited the seaside in 1871; to my intense disgust, hardly a specimen of any description was to be obtained. Feeling the impossibility of dragging out an inactive existence for four weeks with no alleviation but that offered by the morning swim, I began to cast about for something to give zest to my rambles, when the idea of forming a collection of British Birds' Eggs came to me as a welcome relief. Without delay I set to work in search of nests, having no knowledge to guide me, beyond what I had picked up hap-hazard during my entomological excursions, which amounted to little more than an acquaintance with the notes and general appearance of some of our commoner birds, and the size and colouring of a few of their eggs. As might be expected, the whole of the eggs first collected were blown with two holes, and the discovery that I could expel the contents, by means of a blowpipe, from one hole, was made in total ignorance that this plan had long been in general practice.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nests and Eggs of British Birds: When and Where to Find Them; Being a Handbook to the Oology of the British Islands Tiie following pages deal exclusively with the birds that breed within the confines of the British Archi pelago; consequently the student will find several familiar species omitted, the Fieldfare and the Redwing for example, they having no claim whatever to be con sidered in a work which professes to be a Handbook to the Oology of our islands alone. The idea of a work on the Nests and Eggs of British Birds occurred to me some twelve years ago; and from that time to the present I have been carefully collecting facts, examining specimens, and so on, with the object of forminga comprehensive handbook to British Oology. The results of my studies are now presented to the reader in the following pages. Most of my information has been obtained from personal observation; and with very few exceptions I have taken with my own hands nests and eggs of all our British species; whilst with most of them I have extended my observations over periods of many years.
