Excerpt from Methods of Attracting Birds
The importance of attracting birds around our homes was first impressed upon the author through his experience with children in connec tion with the work in nature-study in the public schools. This was encouraged chiefly from the child's standpoint, on account of the educative value of this kind of work on the child. Further more, from the standpoint of the birds, this means of encouraging and protecting them is a very efficient one, which may be applied by all bird lovers, adults as well as children.
Hence this book has been written from two view-points, that of birds and that of human beings; for the protection of the former and the pleasure of the latter.
The author has not attempted to restrict him self to his own experiences, but has drawn freely upon the experiences of any who could be reached. And, indeed, the chief value of these pages lies in the fact that they represent the results of so many observers, giving a brief summary of the work that is being done throughout the country.
