NATURE STUDY is to-day taking such 

 a prominent place in Education, and 

 attracting so much attention generally, 

 that it is hoped 'The Birds and their 

 Story ' will be found to fill a useful place in 

 the literature of so fascinating a subject. 



It is now recognized that the study of 

 Natural History need not necessarily lead to 

 the useless sacrifice of life ; and this book will 

 prove of great service to the increasing num- 

 ber of those interested in the observation of 

 the living bird in its natural haunts. 



By permission of the authorities of the 

 British Museum of Natural History, many of 

 the exhibits showing the diverse forms of the 

 structure of birds have been photographed 

 by the author to illustrate the different points 

 in the life-history of the various kinds men- 

 tioned. But these illustrations do not by any 

 means represent the whole of those in the 

 volume, as many Birds have been photo- 

 graphed from life by the author in various 

 parts of England and the Continent.
