Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life of a Bird: An Account of the Progress of Birds From the Nest to Their Perfect Condition
The situations which birds of different species and orders fix upon for the foundation of the dwelling-place of their young are extremely various, and lie among the deep recesses of the forest, in the pleasanter alleys of the greenwood, in the hedge-row, the bank-side, the crevices of the rock, the borders of the lake, the solitary moun tain and moor. Thither let us follow them, and trace these busy architects in their operations.
