Excerpt from Baby Bird-Finder Illustrated: A Pocket Guide to the Common Water and Game Birds and Hawks and Owls of New England With Blank Pages for Notes The water and game birds and the birds of prey are often omitted by the amateur, and it is hoped that this little book will arouse a new interest in their study and protection. The last of July the shore birds begin to arrive from the northfduring August and Sep tember they continue to come and go, by the first of October most of them have gone. Then begins the ?ight of the ducks. Many of these remain through the winter. A day at the beach in late fall or midwinter_ is a pleasant outing, and many a delightful hour may be spent watching the birds off shore. At Lynn, Revere or other pro tected waters they are more confident and easier to approach. A few days at Chatham or Nantucket in the fall or late summer is an interesting experience. There one may secure the services of a fisherman and his dory and get acquainted with the ocean birds. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
