WHOLESALE AND RETAIL. 



Brief dc-criplions, and for the most part 

 FULL LIFE HISTORIES are given of 

 all the species common east of the Mississippi, 

 with special attention to the songs and nesting, 

 and the curious and fascinating, of which there 

 is so much in the lives of these wonderful 

 creatures. The narrative follows, for the most 

 part, the order of the seasons, and groups itself 

 about certain interesting localities, as Niagara 

 River and St. Clair Flats. Migration, instinct, 

 the analogy of nidification, the specialized 

 forms and adaptaiionsof .structure in birds, etc., 

 all made readable. 



The work is mo.stly from personal observa- 

 tion, incorporating a full report for Western 

 New York and the adjouiing regions of the great 

 lakes, and a pretty full report for Nova Scolia. 

 also a good deal of direct information from 

 Hudson's Bay, by means of on excellent cor- 

 respondent.

 PRICE $3.00.
