Excerpt from Some Useful Australian Birds In the Agricultural Gazette of New South Wales, of January, 1896, the late Mr. A. J. North, Ornithologist to the Australian Museum, commenced a series of papers under the title of 14 A List of the Insectivorous Birds of New South Wales," which appeared at irregular intervals in 1896, 1897, 1900, 1901, 1902, and 1905. The list comprised brief descriptions of 160 birds, and was illustrated with a number of lithographic plates in colours. Three parts were afterwards issued separately, but such was the demand that the supply was soon exhausted. So many inquiries were made concerning the articles that it was decided to issue a second series. The editor at that time of the Agricultural Gazette, Mr. J. E. O'Grady, undertook the work of the letterpress and the plates were copied from the figures in Gould's great folio work "Handbook of the Birds of Australia" and reproduced by the three-colour process. This series commenced in the April number of the Gazette, 1910. In 1912 Mr. O'Grady severed his connection with the Department of Agriculture, and I was asked to supply the letterpress and supervise the preparation of the plates of this second series. October, 1915, saw the conclusion of the series, designed at that period for republishing in the form of a bulletin. The conditions affecting the output of all publications during the war period has deferred their reappearance until now. To make the work uniform I have added a chapter on bird protection and allied questions, and have rewritten the letterpress contributed in the first place by Mr. O'Grady. The plates for the present work were printed at the same time as those for the Agricultural Gazette some years ago, and the names (popular and specific) were worked at the same time. It has been deemed advisable in the letterpress, however, to adopt in some cases a later nomenclature. The popular and scientific name of each species, and the page reference to Gould's "Handbook of the Birds of Australia" (a standard authority) has been given; and for the field naturalist, for whom this book has been chiefly prepared, a reference to Leach's "Bird Book" has also been added. Among the works consulted in the compilation of this book, the following may be mentioned in particular : - "Nests and Eggs of Australian Birds" (A. J. Campbell), vols. 1-11, 1901; "The Useful Birds of Southern Australia" (Robert Hall), 1907; "Key to the Birds of Australia and Tasmania" (Robert Hall), 1899; "Wanderings of a Bush Naturalist" (J. Wheel right), 1861: "Handbook of the Birds of Australia" (J. Gould), vol. 1-11, 1865; "Voyage to New South Wales" (John White), 1790, in which a number of plates of birds are given with brief descriptions; "Birds of New Holland" (John Lewin), 1822, in which hand-coloured plates of many of our birds are given; "An Australian Bird Book" (Dr. J. A Leach, 1911), a pocket-book for field use; "Nests and Eggs of Birds found Breeding in Australia and Tasmania" (A. J. North), 1889, catalogue No. 12, Australian Museum.

A marvelously illustrated A-to-Z compendium of bird names from around the globe The Bird Name Book is an alphabetical reference book on the origins and meanings of common group bird names, from “accentor” to “zeledonia.” A cornucopia of engaging facts and anecdotes, this superbly researched compendium presents a wealth of incisive entries alongside stunning photos by the author and beautiful historic prints and watercolors. Myers provides brief biographies of prominent figures in ornithology—such as John Gould, John Latham, Alfred Newton, and Robert Ridgway—and goes on to describe the etymological history of every common group bird name found in standardized English. She interweaves the stories behind the names with quotes from publications dating back to the 1400s, illuminating the shared evolution of language and our relationships with birds, and rooting the names in the history of ornithological discovery. Whether you are a well-traveled birder or have ever wondered how the birds in your backyard got their names, The Bird Name Book is an ideal companion.
