Excerpt from A Naturalist's Rambles About Home
I have in but very few cases endeavored to follow any ani mal from the cradle to the grave but my aim has been rather to record my impressions of such as I saw, as I saw them and never have I started out with the intention of making every creature I found conform to the rules laid down for its conduct by those who assume to know more about animals than these know about themselves.

Excerpt from A Naturalist's Rambles About Home
"When I happen out for a stroll, the difficulty that besets me is not what to seek - for to ramble without an object is an abomination - but what to choose of the endless variety of objects worthy of attention. I do not like to determine this after I have started, but prefer saying to myself, "I will watch the birds to-day," or, "I will hunt up the meadow-mice." To do this, at once gives an additional interest to a contemplated ramble; and, in all my experience, I have never yet failed to find some trace, at least, of that object to observe which I took the walk.
Avoid the highways when you take a walk. Even if well shaded, they are abandoned now to the pestiferous English sparrows; and if you are really intent on a good tramp of a few miles, do not turn aside for a stretch of swamp. If you have any fear of wet feet, be properly shod before starting. It too often happens that the sights best worth seeing come to you when in a bit of wet meadow.
