Visual guide to the eggs of over 500 bird species from around the world, with text and full-color photographs.

This book comprises a simple guide to the identification of the nests of common British birds. This antique text was published separately from the book to which it belongs ('The Young People's Nature-Study Book') in the hope that it would prove of some value on its own. It is aimed at young readers upon their rambles in spring, enabling them to identify the birds to which nests belong - without tedious taxonomical analysis. The perfect text for amateur...

Groups birds according to whether they are found in city and town, farm country, field and meadow, or woodland and then describes the birds, their nests, and their eggs.
