In the wake of several books about the birds of South America, the eminent ornithologist turns his eye in this 1893 work to the fauna of a small village in his adopted country, England, . He catalogues fifty-nine different species of birds, and also records the lengths he went to (or heights he climbed) to observe the jay and the magpie, the wryneck and the cuckoo.
