Download or read book Bird Studies at Old Cape May written by Winter Stone. This book was released on 2000-03-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 1900s ornithologist Witmer Stone spent years observing the bird life in and around Cape May, NJ. His classic descriptions of some 300 species, first published in 1937 by the Delaware Valley Ornithological Club, are republished here for the first time in one volume. Where the birds live, their habits and behavior, physical appearance, what they eat, when they migrate, and how population statuses have shifted -- all these aspects of the birds are described in vivid, engaging detail. "Everyone interested in the distribution and the conservation of birds, whether he lives in the Garden State or elsewhere, will find Dr. Stone's writings worth study and reflection." A treasure trove for any birder! Illustrated facsimile edition.
