Bird-names do not seem to be so often synonymous, but 
I will put my Bird-notes here, as it may be interesting to 
compare the Bird- and Flower-names. No one can be more 
sensible than I am of the imperfection of these notes both 
as regards the Bird- and Flower-names, and I feel that the 
Indian proverb describing a person who has embarked on 
an enterprise insufficiently prepared may be applied to me : 
“ He took a plough of grass and grasshoppers for oxen.” 
My excuse must be Linnseus’ motto, 11 Tantus amor florura,’ 
$0 deep is my love of Flowers, and, I may add, Birds.
