Cavity-Nesting Birds Of North American Forests, Agriculture Handbook 511

By Virgil E Scott and Keith E Evans

A gentle invitation to a vanished world of birds and the forests they call home. A field guide that speaks with the quiet authority of a naturalist's companion, and the human wonder of a good story about nesting, flight, and the seasons. Cavity-Nesting Birds Of North American Forests, Agriculture Handbook 511 by Virgil E. Scott offers a concise, accessible tour of cavity nesting biology, the habitats that sustain forest birds, and the practical insights a field researcher or teacher can carry into the classroom or the backwoods. This edition preserves the spirit of early twentieth-century USA study while speaking clearly to today's curious readers, offering a reliable reference that feels both intimate and authoritative. Its literary and historical significance rests in its meticulous observation and its place in the lineage of ornithology handbooks that shaped American naturalist culture. For casual readers it is a vivid, reverent glimpse into a world of dappled light, woodpecker chisels, and secretive nest boxes. For classic-literature collectors, it is a pristine artefact of scholarly endeavour and regional character. Selling points: out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions; restored for today's and future generations; more than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This illustrated edition invites lovers of field guides and naturalist reference to pause, study, and marvel at the intricate lives of forest birds across North America.
