Excerpt from British Birds' Eggs and Nests The principle adopted in the illustrations has been to omit all representations of eggs either white or nearly white in colour, in order to husband space for the admission of a greater number of those char acterised by varied colours and markings. On the same ground, although it was earnestly desired by the artist to give more than one representation of some of the very marked variations occurring in the eggs of several species, he has been compelled to content him self with selecting and figuring the most typical or normal forms in all such cases. All the illustrations given have been carefully drawn from unquestionable specimens, and Mr. Coleman desires to acknowledge in this place the assistance which, in this matter, has been afforded him by that excellent and accurate practical naturalist, Mr. F. Bond. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
