A BIRD BOOK 



FOR TEACHERS 



By FRANK M. CHAPMAN 



is especially adapted to the use of teachers. There 

 are 75 full-page colored plates figuring 1 00 common 

 birds. The Biographies are so arranged that they 

 may be used in supplemental reading. The Intro- 

 ductory Chapters treat of the bird's place in nature 

 and its relations to man, including its esthetic and 

 economic value; the wings, tail, bill, and feet of birds 

 and their uses, the colors of birds and what they mean, 

 bird migration, the voice of birds, birds* nests and eggs. 



An Appendix throws all this matter into the form 

 of lessons, reviews the bird-life of a year, tells of the 

 more interesting events of each month, and gives lists 

 of the birds which may be looked for at certain seasons. 



There is a Field Key, 'local lists' for various places, 

 and an outHne of classification for those who want it.
