Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birds of Old English Literature The entire body of Old English literature abounds in references to birds, but the most fruitful source of material is the lists of bird-names in the glosses, in some of which there seems to be a rude attempt at classification. More over, the art oi falconry (cf. Sect. XXXVII), which was introduced into England not later than the middle of the 8th century, and was very popular among the Anglo Saxons, presupposes a considerable knowledge of the haunts and habits of birds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poets' Birds Poetical license of course excuses much, and in homage to the true aim Of poetry almost anything may be condoned. But even poetical license must confess to laws, and, like Nature herself in her most wayward moods, must never permit the extension of an idea except in the direction of its natural progression. It must be produced in a straight line only. There must be no kinks in it, no eccentric liber ties taken. When Nature made a bat She availed herself of a lawful license; but when poets call the bat a bird, they go beyond the justifiable. If a bard is not content with merely saying that the eagle stares at the sun, but goes on to add that its sight pierces through the sun and beyond it, his extension is in a straight line or if another, describing the raven riding on the crest of the swiftly-moving storm, speaks of it as hastening the storm, there is an admissible and pleasing prolongation, so to speak, of the original idea. But when the vulture, because it is opposed to the dove in general Character, is made (as by Savage) to chase the dove and catch it; or when, the sea having becoming calm, the sea-gulls begin (as in Mallet) to warble, we resent the liberty taken by the bard, for it is eccentric, and out of the regular plane of Nature's procedure.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Birds and Their Nestlings Since permanent interest in any subject cannot be awakened through occasional lessons, it is believed that much profit will come from a few weeks' continuous read ing along a single line, - reading which will create a love for the beautiful through understanding. Ignorance closes the door to much of our best' literature, which can be interpreted only through a sympathetic familiarity with nature. Color, sound, and movement are always attractive to childhood, and nowhere can they be found in such pleas ing combination as in the bird world. The study of its busy little inhabitants in their natural environment will not only add pleasure to the walks of the child, but will help him to a knowledge of the adaptation of all life to its surroundings. It will also lead to the intelligent appreciation of litera ture and music. Since the birth of time the birds have inspired poets and musicians. They have also given the keenest pleas ure to countless thousands who have never attempted to express what they felt. To interest a child in these guests of our groves, - these feathered entertainers who are also workers in our fields and orchards, - is to put him in possession of a wellspring of interest as enduring as life itself.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lost British Birds The species described as lost in this paper, are those which were summer residents and breeders, or inhabitants all the year round, of some part of Great Britain, but which no longer breed in this country and visit our shores only as rare stragglers, or, bi-annually, in their migrations to and from their breeding areas on the continent of Europe. In other words, if the British race be extinct the species is here regarded as lost, however abundant it may be elsewhere. Perhaps it would be safer to say if practically extinct; since I have included species of which one or two pairs are still known to breed within the kingdom. In the case of the ruff and reeve, for instance, Professor Newton is inclined to think that I have been a "little premature." Taking the word "lost" in this restricted sense, I do not think that ornithologists will find that I am very much out in my list, which I have been assisted in making by two friends, both authorities in questions of this kind - Mr. J. E. Harting, and Professor Newton himself. It is certainly difficult to know where to draw the line, and having once determined to include species that are practically extinct, like the hen-harrier and the ruff and reeve, there were others, like the osprey and sea-eagle, which it seemed unreasonable to omit. But it was necessary to draw the line somewhere, and it was thought best to leave out any species represented by at least three or four pairs that have some measure of protection afforded to them when breeding.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twelve Months With the Birds and Poets This study of birds and poets is divided into twelve chapters, one for each month of the year, beginning with April, the opening of the birds' year. The birds are discussed in the month most appropriate to them by reason of habits of nesting, migration or other distinguishing characteristics. This plan enables the reader to live through the year with the birds, and to learn when to look for them. The observations were made in Illinois, Indiana and Michigan, and the book may be used as a safe guide for the study of the more common birds of this latitude from the Rocky Mountains east to the Atlantic seaboard.

There they find all they need - the hedges are usually bright with hips, and with the darker crimson berries of the hawthorn the fields are all pasture-meadows, and the grass is tufty and full of insects; a little stream winds snake-like through the fields, hidden by an overarching growth Of briar and bramble. NO well-worn path crosses these meadows, and you may count on being undisturbed if you sit for a few minutes, to enjoy the winter sunshine and.
