Excerpt from Birds and Their Nests The birds in these pictures of ours have all nests, which is as it should be; for how could the bird rear its young without its little home and soft little bed, any more than children could be comfortably brought up without either a bed to lie upon, or a home in which to be happy.

Excerpt from Britain's Birds and Their Nests Under each plate is given the ordinary English name of the species, the place which it occupies in the system of classification followed in the text, and two measure ments to give an idea of the scale on which the bird is drawn. These are (1) the length in inches from the tip of the beak to the tip of the tail; (2) the length from the carpal joint (the shoulder' of the wing) to the quill-tips - the greatest length of the wing when measured in the position of rest. The figures are average measure ments for adult males according to a standard authority. In most species the females are slightly smaller. Great disparity, or differences in the reverse direction, are usually mentioned in the text. The purpose of the text is to give in popular language an account of the natural history of British breeding birds, considered as such. The list is complete, and in cludes birds which nest only exceptionally in our islands, or which formerly nested here but no longer do so. Birds only suspected of having nested in Britain are mentioned within brackets under the head of some allied species. The birds receiving lengthy treatment correspond roughly to those to which plates have been allotted; but items of special interest or importance, and the inclusion or omission of near relatives, have been important factors in determining whether a species should be fully de scribed or not. It is explained (on p. 227) why the descriptions of the birds of the great Order, Passeres. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Nests and Eggs of American Birds Loosely built, some of the eel-grass hanging down at least ten inches below the rim of the nest. The inner lining was made in the common way, of the usual grasses. One of the nests which he obtained had a few dead leaves in its 'base. Finally, the collection of Dr. Wm. Wood, of Connecticut, contains three robins' nests, all built during the same season, within the same tobacco-shed, and made wholly of bits of tobacco-twine woven inseparably together. Presumably, these three nests were made by the same pair; and Dr. Wood is reported as inclining to the opinion that two of them, at least, were made before any eggs were. Laid, since he has known of such a case. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
