Beautifully written (and formatted - thanks to whoever took all the trouble), this book is delightful, descriptive and a great read.

Originally published in 1907 this book's chapters were charmingly organized and arranged and exceeded my expectations - particularly since there were a few excerpts which intricately revealed scenes of a past gone era. I do wish there had been many more illustrations of the birds we encountered and perhaps these done in color

This is a very happy book that both children and adults will enjoy! While reading it, I felt like a kid, listening to all kinds of wonderful story-like descriptions about birds. The information is factual, yet presented in a way that children can understand and enjoy. Ms Blanchan's descriptions make the birds come alive!

Someone should do a California version of this book, and include illustrations or photos on kindle. The idea is lovely, but this book exists as an artifact of another time - and place.

It is a great book for those interested in birds. I bought it for me (a grown adult) because I am fortunate enough to live in an area where I am surrounded by wildlife.

good book
