Excerpt from The Naturalist's Manual: Containing Descriptions of the Nests and Eggs of North American Birds (Turdidæ Tanagridæ); Also, Instructions for Collecting and Preserving Birds, Nests, Eggs and Insects
Asterisks are placed after the names of those species concerning whose nests and eggs I have obtained no reliable information.
It is hoped that the new methods in mounting birds will be of value to the experienced taxidermist as well as to the begin ner.
The instructions for collecting insects are chiefly those which I have learned from experience.
In presenting this little volume to my readers, I trust they will find herein some hints that will be of aid to them in col leeting and preserving their own specimens.
