Excerpt from The New Canadian Bird Book for School and Home Hast thou named all the birds without a gun? - 0, be my friend and teach me to be thine - Emerson. Man - as a destroying agent - is indeed mighty when attacking large creatures, but against insects, with their activity and enor mous powers of reproduction, he is forced to look for help. One very powerful ally we have not yet seriously encouraged - the birds - those beautiful, tuneful, enthusiastic destroyers of insects.

Excerpt from Birds of Eastern Canada Of late years there has been a great awakening of interest in the subject of natural history. More and more people are beginning to realize the pleasure and profit that can be derived from observation of common natural objects. In this growing field of nature study, few subjects have attracted so much popular attention as birds and few forms of life appeal so strongly to the aesthetic sense. They are beautiful; they arouse curiosity; their elusiveness piques the imagination; and by presenting constantly new aspects they never become commonplace. The ornithological side is one from which the problems of nature can be successfully attacked from so many standpoints and in so many ways that there is interesting and valuable work for all to accomplish according to individual taste or opportunity. Those who incline towards systematic work can split their definitions as finely as human powers of observation permit. The animal psychologist can develop his problems as far as ingenuity can devise methods for experimentation. The ordinary nature lover can observe and note as painstakingly as opportunity permits; he can record information of scientific as well as popular interest, take pleasure in observing passing beauties, train his powers of observation, and acquire a knowledge that greatly increases his capacity for appreciation of nature. Even the unsentimental, practical man, who has little outward sympathy with abstract beauty, has his attention attracted by the evident economic value of birds. The "Birds of Eastern Canada" has been written to awaken and, where it already exists, to stimulate an interest, both aesthethic and practical, in the study of Canadian birds and to suggest the sentimental, scientific, and economic value, of that study; to assist in the identification of native species; and to furnish the economist with a ready means of determining bird friend from bird foe that he may act intelligently towards them and to the best interest of himself and the country at large; to present in a readily accessible form reliable data upon which measures of protective legislation may be based; to point out some of the pitfalls that have caught the inexperienced in the past; and to suggest methods for their future avoidance. Scope Of The Book. This work covers all the birds that the ordinary observer is likely to meet with between the Atlantic coast and the prairies north of the International Boundary. This region forms a natural zoological area (see Distribution, page 8), including what may be called the eastern woodlands of Canada, a fairly homogeneous section, physically, geographically, and zoologically. The prairies are radically different in character and, consequently, exhibit an entirely different aspect of bird life.

Excerpt from A Catalogue of Canadian Birds: With Notes on the Distribution of the Species Tn object of this Catalogue is to bring together the names of all the birds that have been discovered within the boundaries of the Dominion, from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific, and north to the Arctic; to present these in the system of nomenclature and in the sequence now generally adopted by American Ornithologists, and to give the geographical distribution of each species. This latter portion of the work has not been accomplished very satisfactorily, for, although considerable labor and care have been devoted to the preparation of the notes on distribution, they are not at all complete, and I fear that, on further investigation, some of them will be proven incorrect. There is no way at present of avoiding these defects. All the information that is now obtainable has been procured; the works of the older authors have been freely drawn upon, as well as those of recent writers, and a number of MSS. reports have been prepared expressly for the present work. But the greater portion of the country - immense stretches of forest and prairie and sea coast - have received little attention from Ornithologists, while even the more settled districts have not yet been fully investigated, leaving a large amount of fieldwork still to be done before anything like a complete account of the Birds of Canada can be produced. I am quite aware that this opinion regarding the narrow limits of our knowledge of Canadian birds is opposed to that held by some of the leading scientific men of the Dominion, who consider that all that can be learned about our fauna is now known to science.

Excerpt from Catalogue Canadian Birds In compiling this catalogue the authors have endeavoured to bring together facts on the range and nesting habits of all birds known to reside in, migratekto or visit, the northern part of the continent. In addition to the Dominion of Canada they have therefore included Newfoundland, Greenland and Alaska. The nomenclature and the numbers given in the latest edition and supple ments of the Check - list published by the American Ornithologists' Union have been made the basis of arrangement of the catalogue. The order followed in the notes on each bird is, as a general rule, from east to west. Greenland is generally cited first and British Columbia and Alaska last. As the catalogue is intended to be a popular and practical one, the English names of the birds are placed first, but the species are arranged in their scientific order and in accordance with the latest nomenclature. While recognizing the differences upon which many of the technical names have been based, the writer holds that some of them, depending as they do upon local and almost upon individual variations from a common type, possess from any practical or educational standpoint but a minor value. To an investigator of changes resulting from environment such differences are of great interest, but to any one anxious only to obtain the facts in regard to the distribution of our birds as readily determinable, they are unimpor tant. Until the publication of the first edition of this Catalogue, no attempt had been made to produce a work dealing with the ornith ology of the region now embraced in the Dominion of Canada since the publication of the F auna Boreali Americana by Swainson and Richardson, in 1831. In the work referred to the authors include separate notices of all birds that had been recorded north of Lat. Two hundred and forty species are described and twenty-seven additional West Coast species are added, making a total of two hundred and sixty-seven species known at that date.

Excerpt from A Popular Handbook of the Birds of the United States and Canada If we draw a comparison between these inhabitants of the air and the earth, we Shall perceive that, instead of the large head, formidable jaws armed with teeth, the capacious chest, wide shoulders, and muscular legs of the quadrupeds, they have bills, or pointed jaws destitute of teeth a long and pliant neck, gently swelling shoulders, immovable vertebrae; the fore arm attenuated to a point and clothed with feathers, forming the expansive wing, and thus fitted for a different species of motion; likewise the wide extended tail, to assist the general provision for buoyancy throughout the whole anatomical frame.
