About this ebook
Ornithologist and naturalist W. H. Hudson’s Adventures Among Birds is an engaging account of the remarkable behavior he’s observed among birds. Here is a lonely swan who befriends a trout; a gander who herds his fellow geese into a fox-proof enclosure every evening; and a flock of lapwings who playfully splash newcomers to their group.
W.H. Hudson
William Henry Hudson (1841–1922) was an author and naturalist. Hudson was born in Argentina, the son of English and American parents. There, he studied local plants and animals as a young man, publishing his findings in Proceedings of the Royal Zoological Society, in a mixture of English and Spanish. Hudson’s familiarity with nature was readily evident in later novels such as A Crystal Age and Green Mansions. He later aided the founding of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds.
