Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Hand Book to the Birds of Great Britain, Vol. 3 I have nothing to add to the prefatory remarks in the previous volumes, and am only too pleased to find that I have no heterodox views to defend, nor any criticisms to reply to. It only remains, therefore, to thank my kind friends who have helped me in the preparation of the present volume. It has been a somewhat tedious task, as the general habits of Wading Birds are so much alike, that it is difficult to find anything to say about them that has not been excellently done by the late Mr. Henry Seebohm or by Mr. Howard Saunders. Many of the descriptions of the Waders are taken from my recent work on the group in the "Catalogue of Birds," and I hope that these will be found instructive to the numbers of ornithologists who are interested in Shore-Birds and Waders generally. I have also endeavoured to quote works on natural history not familiarly known in this country; and the notes on the habits of some of the North American species, taken from the writings of Mr. E. W. Nelson and Mr. D. G. Elliot, will be found to be of some interest, and the latter´s recent book on North American Shore-birds has frequently been laid under contribution in the following pages.
