He also delves into the bird's senses, including vision, hearing, and touch, and how they are used in flight and foraging. The book also covers the bird's reproductive system, migration patterns, and social behavior. Overall, ""The Bird: Its Form and Function"" is an essential resource for anyone interested in the biology and ecology of birds.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
