Excerpt from Our Rarer Birds: Being Studies in Ornithology and Oology
The illustrations which adorn many of the following pages have been drawn by my friend, Mr. Charles Whymper, to whom my best thanks are due for the very satisfactory manner in which the work entrusted to his care has been performed. I also desire to acknowledge here the kindness of Dr. Sclater, who gave me permission, on behalf of the British Ornithologists' Union, to include in this work the drawing of the St. Kilda Wren, which appeared originally in the Ibis.
