Bird Stories from Burroughs Sketches of Bird Life Taken from the Works of John Burroughs

"Bird Stories from Burroughs" by John Burroughs is a compilation of stories about birds, that takes readers on a journey through the world of birdwatching in northeastern America during the late 1800s. Through accounts taken from the author's other writings, like seeing the difficulties of being a bird parent when the nest is in danger, the book is an invite, especially to young readers, to learn about and enjoy the bird world. From a bluebird's funny struggle feeding its young to a journey into the woods to find a bluebird's nest, the stories paint a picture of the close and often funny relationships between birds and where they live.
