With its vivid descriptions and insightful observations, ""Birds And Bees, Sharp Eyes And Other Papers"" is a classic work of nature writing that continues to inspire readers today.How surely the birds know their enemies! See how the wrens and robins and bluebirds pursue and scold the cat, while they take little or no notice of the dog! Even the swallow will fight the cat, and, relying too confidently upon its powers of flight, sometimes swoops down so near to its enemy that it is caught by a sudden stroke of the cat's paw. The only case I know of in which our small birds fail to recognize their enemy is furnished by the shrike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
