About this ebook
This fascinating work is a collection of essays filled with nature studies on bird behavior, poetry focusing on birds, a text on the nature of cows, and a piece of literary criticism on Walt Whitman. In addition, John Burroughs made wonderful observations of nature, especially the change of seasons and how it embodies itself in the air, ground, and earth.
