    About this ebook

    Written by the nature-enthusiasts couple, Elizabeth and Joseph Grinnell, this book introduces readers to the field of ornithology - the study of birds. The Grinnells, who lived in California, present their understanding of the field in a whimsical yet intellectual manner, complete with illustrations of birds such as those they call "civilized blackbirds" and "neighborly mockingbirds".
