Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Bird Comrades To know the birds intimately, to interpret their lives in all their varied conditions, one must get close to them. For the purpose of accomplishing this object the author of this volume has gone to their haunts day after day and watched them persistently at not a little cost of time, effort, and money. While the limits of a single volume do not permit him to present all of his observations, it is hoped that those here offered will be satisfactory as far as they go, and that the reader will be able to glean from these pages some new as well as interesting facts relative to bird life. The writer has had another purpose in view in preparing this book: He wishes to inspire others, especially the young, to use their eyes and ears in the study of the enchanting volume of Nature. This object, he believes, will be best accomplished by furnishing concrete examples of what may be achieved by earnest research. For purposes of stimulus an ounce of example is worth a pound of precept. If another sees you and me doing a thing joyfully, earnestly, we need scarcely say to him, "Go thou and do likewise."

Book Synopsis Our Birds and Their Nestlings (Classic Reprint) by : Margaret Coulson Walker
Download or read book Our Birds and Their Nestlings (Classic Reprint) written by Margaret Coulson Walker and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Birds and Their Nestlings In most cases they are birds of conspicuous plumage, these being most easily recognised. To avoid monotomy, all decriptions have been relegated to the appendix. An attempt has been made to enlist sympathy with, as well as to awaken interest in, bird life, for the interest without sympathy, in this case, would only encourage the naturally destructive instincts of childhood. For the purpose of showing the importance of birds in literature, as well as for the purpose of calling into play the aesthetic faculty, poems and legends have been included. All hackneyed poems have been avoided. For their generous permission to use valuable copy-righted material, intebtedness is gratefully acknowledged to Houghton, Miffin & Co., Small, Maynard & Co., D. Appleton & Co., and Our Dumb Animals Publishing Co.; to Mrs. Margaret Sangster, Mr. Eben Rexford, Mr. Clinton Scollard, and Mr. Frank Dempster Sherman. For the photographic illustrations, I am especially indebted to Mr. Francis Hobart Herrick, an earnest bird student and an enthusiastic photographer, who has kindly permitted me the use of some of the remarkably fine photographs used in illustrating his interesting book, The Home Life of Wild Birds, a book with which all bird students are already familiar. Mr. Frank M. Chapman, Mr. A. R. Dugmore, Mr. John Cameron, Miss Ruth Shutts, Mr. James Miller, and the Recreation Publishing Co., have also assisted me in the same way. Want of space precludes the individual mention of a number of my associates to whom I am indebted for both counsel and good-natured critism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Bird Friends and Foes The bird branch of the animal tree, since forking off from its reptilian stem, has grown much and flowered beautifully. How much more admirable, for instance, is the soft plumage of the bird than the harsh body mail of the reptile. How much more pleasing by contrast are the notes of birds, some of them among the best music in the world, to the glum silence of reptiles, broken only by threatening hissing. Birds have a monopoly of feathers; every feathered animal is a bird. No bird lacks feathers; no other crea ture has them. Feathers not only have proved wonder fully adaptable in aiding the bird to fly, but they have developed as down and thickly set body plumage, that enable the bird to resist cold, to float like a cork on icy waters, and even to repose on the ice itself, enveloped in a thick downy mantle that shuts out the killing frost. Birds made a great and wonderful advance when they left behind that reptilian inheritance of cold blood, which bound them to the tropics, and began to develop a warm blooded circulation. Now their systems are so efficient in keeping up body temperature that birds are the warm est of all living things.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Bird Allies HE scheme of the following work is sufficiently explained by its title, and I have only to regret that limitations of space have prevented me from mentioning many birds which I would willingly have described. I have felt, however, that it is desirable to consider at some length those which are more especially beneficial, rather than to treat all alike upon one and the same footing. I hold, nevertheless, that no British bird is utterly and wholly destructive, but that the misdeeds of even the most mischievous are atoned for in some degree by services rendered to us in other ways. Birds aid us in three distinct manners: firstly, by acting as scavengers, and destroying putrid matter; secondly, by devouring the seeds of the various wild plants which are so troublesome upon cultivated land; thirdly, and most important, by the slaughter of insects. And in one of these three tasks all take their share, lesser or greater as the case may be, but always appreciable and of value.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Bird Friends: Containing Many Things Young Folks Ought to Know, and Likewise Grown-Ups The bird's bill takes the place of teeth. People sometimes say that a duck has teeth, but that is not the case. A duck's bill is rough on the edges like a file, so that it can hold slippery frogs and little minnows, but it does not use its bill in chewing food-just in gathering it and holding it until it can get the food into its mouth and swallow it. The Skull of a bird is different from the skull Of other animals. The Skull of a squirrel IS composed Of several bones, fastened together In a sort of saw-tooth style, like the edges of two saws put together. A bird's Skull is in one piece.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Love of Comrades: A Romance Dressed as a man, I rode into the forest. It was the time of the beginning of leaves. In the cool grass the slender flowers were alert. Overhead the birds sang to one another, Come, look at little Margery Talbot, wear ing big boots and a long sword at her side. I did not think of the forest or the mountains beyond it or that dangerous Castle, for my thoughts were at a gabled and quiet house in a garden. There a crippled old man stood watching me in a porch under ivy; but I had not the heart to look back at him.
