Foreign Finches in Captivity (2nd Edition Reprint)

Butler's Foreign Finches in Captivity is a fascinating look at aviculture in the late 1800s. This reprint of the second edition (1899) covers finches, mannikins, tanagers, buntings, cardinals, and whydahs, describing the species and offering notes on behavior and biology in the aviary and in the wild. This reprint includes all 60 of naturalist-artist F. W. Frohawk's beautiful full-color illustrations. These prints can be obtained individually as wall-art; see publisher's website (CoachwhipBooks.com) for details.
