A Pocket List Of The Birds Of Eastern Massachusetts PDF Download

Excerpt from Annotated List of Birds of Wellesley and Vicinity: Comprising the Land-Birds and Most of the Inland Water-Fowl of Eastern Massachusetts The following list is designed especially for the use of students in Wellesley College, and others interested in the bird-life of Wellesley and surrounding towns, its chief purpose being to give an approximately correct idea of the bird-life of the district, and serve as a convenient pocket guide to observations. Its field of usefulness, however, especially with reference to the land-birds, is not confined to the area mentioned, but comprises the greater part of Eastern Massachusetts. The list is based upon personal observations, the readily accessible published records of occurrence of the rarer species, and notes furnished by a number of observers, collectors, and taxidermists having a practical acquaintance with the birds of the district. The works treating of New England birds have also been used, when necessary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
