Excerpt from Field Observations on British Birds

The intention of the writer of this foreword is merely to give, in a few lines, a slight sketch of the Author of these Essays from an intimate and personal standpoint. This may, perhaps, increase the interest in the scientific side of his character, as reflected in these pages.

Fergus Menteith Ogilvie was the sixth and youngest son of Alexander and Margaret Ogilvie, of Sizewell House, Leiston, Suffolk. He was born in London on November Ist, 1861, and died on the 17th January, 1918, of acute pneumonia, at the Shrubbery, his house in Oxford.
