Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from British Sea Birds
Of all the birds that haunt the sea and the shore, those of the Gull family are the best known. From whichever direction the sea is reached, almost invariably the first indication of its vicinity is a Gull, sailing along, it may be, in easy, careless ?ight, or wheeling and gliding high in air above the waste Of restless waters. The Gull and its kindred then are inseparably associated in the minds Of most people with the sea, and with them, therefore, it certainly seems most appropriate to commence our study of marine bird-life.
