FAMILIAR INDIAN BIRDS 



BY 



GORDON DALGLIESH. 



Illustrated by Half-tone Blocks from the Drawings of 

 R. H. BUNTING and H. B. NEILSON. 



This little book is intended mainly for those who live in, or visit, India, 

 and who are interested in the birds they are likely to meet in everyday life, 

 and who wish to learn something about tbem. The author writes from 

 personal knowledge and observation. 



" As a useful handbook to familiar Indian Birds we know of no better guide. 

 . . . Well printed."— Naturalist's Quarterly Beview. 



" A very handy little monograph. ... As an accurate vade mecum of Indian 

 bird-life the little treatise may be very cordially recommended. . . . Admirably 

 fulfils its object." — Morning Post of India. 



"A little book which Anglo-Indians, as well as ornithologists, will accord a 

 warm welcome. In the compass of some seventy pages he deals in pleasant, gossipy, 

 and withal not unscientific, fashion with feathered life in India." — The Tribune.
