Excerpt from The Ornithological Guide: In Which Are Discussed Several Interesting Points in Ornithology Ornithology is the science which has for its object the investigation of the habits, affinities, and nature of birds. This pursuit, at first sight so trivial, will, 'if properly followed, be productive of many and im portant advantages.
