This is a popular pocket guide and text book to ALL THE LAND BIRDS EAST 

 OF THE ROCKIES, from the Parrots to the Bluebirds. It is prepared especially for 



teachers and students, after years of study as to their 

 needs. It has the following points of superiority over 

 any other Bird Book: 



COLORED ILLUSTRATIONS.— Every bird is 

 shown in natural colors, including females and young 

 when they differ. 



SCOPE.— A 11 the land birds east of the Rockies 

 are included. It gives the range and habit of each 

 bird, their songs as nearly as they can be written, and 

 description of their nests and eggs. 



SMALL SIZE. — It can easily be carried in the 

 pocket, measuring but 3x5 inches. 200 pages, bound 

 in flexible sock cloth or leather. We have made the 

 price of the book as low as possible considering the 

 good workmanship and material that is used. It is so 

 low that anyone can afford it, but no one can afford to 

 be without it.
