Ornithological Other Oddities (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Ornithological Other Oddities It has always been my belief that "the man in the street" has more interest in natural history, as in other intellectual matters, than eclectics would credit him with, and hence I venture to offer to the public this series of chapters on various topics connected with animal - especially bird - life, which I have had reason to suppose would prove interesting to the general reader. At the same time I have embodied therein the outcome of long observation, so that naturalists themselves may perhaps find somewhat to interest them in the volume, at any rate if they agree with me that the life-history of an animal is at least as worthy a subject for serious scientific study as its structure, whether internal or external.
