Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book details the ornithological observations of the author and several correspondents across Oxfordshire, a county in England, from the 1840s through to 1889.

It provides a valuable historical record of the distribution and habits of Oxfordshire's bird species during the 19th century, noting a marked decline in bird populations by the 1880s. The author provides detailed descriptions of the various species observed, their habitats, and breeding patterns, and discusses the impact of environmental changes, such as increased agricultural practices and urbanization, on birdlife. Overall, the book provides a wealth of data on the avifauna of Oxfordshire during the 19th century that will be of interest to ornithologists and historians alike.
