Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Stray Feathers, 1876, Vol. 4: A Journal of Ornithology for India and Its Dependencies
It is particularly gratifying to the Editor (who was not a little abused for starting stray feathers, ) to find now ere the completion of the 4th Vol. An almost universal concurrence as to the necessity of a Special ornithological journal for India, and a pretty general admission that despite his own shortcomings, his journal has, thanks to the kind and cordial support Of brother ornithologists, rendered important services to Indian Ornithology.
As regards his own shortcomings, the Editor feels that on the present occasion, he has more cause even than in former years to deprecate harsh judgments.
