THE WAY TO STUDY BIRDS 



Eaton's Birds of New York, undoubtedly 

 containing the best plates of New York birds 

 ever produced. Exceedingly fine. 



Chapman's Warblers of North America, a 

 masterpiece on the biographies of the family. 



A. 0. U. Check List, giving the authoritative 

 order, names and habitats of North American 

 birds. 



Ridgway's Birds of North and Middle America, 

 a more detailed and technical account. Very 

 complete. 



PUBLICATIONS 



The following publications are the chief ones 

 relating to ornithology : 



Bird Lore, the popular official organ of the 

 Audubon Society. Bi-monthly. 



The Auk, SL scientific record published as the 

 organ of the A. 0. U. Quarterly. 



Wilson's Bulletin, the organ of the Wilson 

 Ornithological Club. 



The Condor, the organ of the Cooper Ornitho- 

 logical Club. 



Oologist, a magazine devoted largely to oology. 



The first one of these, Bird Lore, should 

 certainly be in the home of every bird lover. 

 It is trustworthy and at the same time has 

 popular appeal. The others, of which The Auk 

 probably stands highest, are not essential, but if 

 the reader becomes sufficiently interested, he 

 may procure them.
