Excerpt from A Naturalist in Madagascar: A Record of Observation, Experiences and Impressions Made During a Period of Over Fifty Years' Intimate Association With the Natives and Study of the Animal and Vegetable Life of the Island But I ask the courteous reader to wander with me into the wonderful and mysterious forests, and to observe the gentle lemurs in their home, as they leap from tree to tree, or take refuge in the thickets of bamboo to come out in the dusk and watch the aye-aye as he stealthily glides along the branches, obtaining his insect food under the bark of the trees to listen to the song of numerous birds, and to note their habits and curious ways to hear the legends and folk-tales in which the Malagasy have preserved the Wisdom of their ancestors with regard to the feathered denizens of the woods and plains, and to admire the luxuriant vegetation of the forests, and the trees and plants, the ferns and owers, and even the grasses, which are to be found in every part of the island.
