Excerpt from In Nesting Time
The sketches of bird manners and customs in this little collection are the record of careful observation, and scrupulously true in every par ticular. The facts may not all be new to Science, but since they are genuine studies from life, and each bird whose acquaintance I make is as truly a discovery to me as if he were totally unknown to the world, I venture to hope that lovers of birds may find in these pages real live individu als in feathers, honestly brothers of ours.
