INTRODUCTION, 
As heretofore announced, beginning with the present, 
each number of BIRDS AND ALL NATURE will 
present at least two birds, three or four animals, and the 
remaining plates will depict such natural subjects as 
insects, butterflies, flowers, geological specimens, etc. 
In fact, everything in nature which can be brought 
before the camera will in its due course be portrayed. 
BIRDS is without doubt one of the most popular 
magazines ever presented to the American public. It is 
read and admired by over one hundred thousand persons. 
BIRDS AND ALL NATURE promises to be even 
more popular, if possible, than BIRDS. We are con- 
stantly receiving congratulations on the success of our 
enterprise, and people are delighted to learn that we 
shall include in succeeding numbers all interesting 
branches of natural history. When the bound volume 
appears it will prove to be worthy of its predecessors.
