‘* Her studies have been made in the vicinity of Chicago, and she 
has evidently had unusually good opportunities to observe certain 
species — opportunities of which she has availed herself so effec- 
tively that her book contains much that is novel.”— Bird-Lore, 
New York. 
‘*The numerous illustrations of nests and nestlings add greatly 
to the realism of her graphically related experiences in the field, 
and combine with the text to render her book especially attractive 
as a popular contribution to the life history of some of our com- 
moner birds.” — The Auk, New York. | 
‘**Mrs. Wheelock would seem to have the magic touch in taming 
the shyest and rarest. She has a host of incidents at command 
and illustrates her pleasant narrative with many illustrations direct 
from nature. The volume is a delightful addition to the library of 
the bird student and lover.” — Philadelphia Public Ledger.
