Why is a cowbird too lazy to hatch her own eggs? Where does a sea gull go when it isn't circling gracefully over the water? These and many more questions are answered for bird lovers in the friendly and informal bird biographies which make up this book. Dr. A. A. Allen, the author, is professor of Ornithology at Cornell University, and because he has observed and loved birds for many years, he knows just how to let the birds tell their own life histories, in such a typical fashion that each biography presents a new bird personality. Twenty of the birds which are found in most parts of the country are presented in this book, and their stories are illustrated with 200 actual photographs, and 20 full-page bird paintings by the distinguished artist, George Miksch Sutton.
