"Everyday Birds: Elementary Studies" by Bradford Torrey is a set of nature-based writings that show birds, written in the early 1900s. The writings describe different types of birds discovered in North America while describing their actions, features, and the sounds they made while performing songs. It is a body of knowledge for readers interested in ornithology and vivid, descriptive writing that can capture a casual reader with its beauty and how diverse the animals are. The start of the story introduces many birds, starting with the kinglet. Torrey goes on to describe the golden-crowned and ruby-crowned birds, which brings attention to their features and the sounds they make. He brings light to how beautiful the ruby-crown's song is by comparing it to a canary, but states the golden-crown's song is more grounded. This part creates a way to bring wonder and respect to birdlife, while telling people to engage in observing the natural world and how much joy comes from watching the birds in their own habitats.
