The Birds of North America 



OVER EIGHT HUNDRED BIRDS FINELY COLORED 



The original drawings for the work Wire made from nature by Theodore Jasper, A. M.. M. D., an artist of 

 superior capabilities; who has made ornithology a life-study. Revised by John Graham Bell, Esq., Audubon's 

 companion in the field, and a well-known ornithologist and taxidermist. The systematic table, arranged ac- 

 cording to the classification adopted by the American Ornithologists' Union, was prepared by Frank M. Chap- 

 man, Esq,, Assistant Ornithologist at The American MuseuTi of Natural History, New York, includes all the- 

 additions to and corrections of our North American species which have been made to date, with an index to page,, 

 plate, and figure, of each species, according to the A. O. U. number. 



There is no more attractive study than ornithology, the department of zoology which treats of structure,, 

 habits, and classification of birds. The graceful forms, movements and habits of the feathered tribes have beea 

 celebrated in all ages by poets and artists, and have furnished the instructors of mankind with lessons of wis- 

 dom. But this admiration is not confined to the poet, the artist, or the sage; it is universal. Wherever humam 

 beings are found, the forms, thj plumage, the songs, the migrations, the lovers and contests of birds awaken' 

 curiosity and wonder. No similar wjrk containing so many beautiful and faithful pictures of living birds, and 

 so much descriptive information, is now extant, or has ever been published, in this or any other country.
