 Bird students and photographers will find that this book possesses for 

 them a unique interest and value. It contains fascinating accounts of 

 the habits of some of our common birds and descriptions of the largest 

 bird colonies existing in eastern North America ; while its author's phe- 

 nomenal success in photographing birds in Nature not only lends to the 

 illustrations the charm of realism, but makes the book a record of 

 surprising achievements with the camera. The book is practical as well 

 as descriptive, and in the opening chapters the questions of camera, 

 lens, plates, blinds, decoys, and other pertinent matters are fully dis- 

 cussed, making the work an admirable guide for the camera hunter.
