"A Manual of Bird Study" by William H. Carr is a scientific publication written during the early 20th century, specifically aiming to serve as a guide for teachers and students in bird identification and study. The book provides detailed descriptions of twenty-five local birds and includes study outlines and project suggestions tailored for educational settings. The content of the book is comprehensive, focusing on the life histories, characteristics, and behaviors of various birds commonly found in the New York area. Each featured bird—such as the Bluebird, Phoebe, and Red-winged Blackbird—is described with information about its physical attributes, feeding habits, songs, nesting behaviors, and ecological significance. Carr also emphasizes the importance of integrating bird studies with other subjects, fostering a multidisciplinary approach to learning about nature. Importantly, the book is designed not only for direct educational use but also to encourage a deeper appreciation of avian life, engaging pupils in active observation and conservation efforts.
