Excerpt from Country Rambles: Being a Field Naturalist's and Country Lover's Note Book for a Year

This volume consists Of notes on Natural History written in a plain and unvarnished style, and placed under the dates when they occurred, or general information which came under my notice during the closing year Of the Nineteenth Century.

There are some entries which may appear trifling, but a true Observer Of Nature should not fail to set on record anything occurring in the Natural History world, as in the future that apparently un important note may be the connecting link which goes to complete a chain of some importance.

There are many entries of Birds, Mammals, Butterflies, Insects, Fishes, Trees, Flowers, etc., which may be looked for at certain stated times in any year; thus this Diary will also serve as a Natural History Calendar.

For the most part my notes refer to the sights and sounds seen and heard during the year in quiet, homely Hertfordshire, and these together with the other features introduced from time to time, will, it is hoped, be acceptable to those to Whom such a volume appeals, and if it imbues any indifferent observers with a love for Natural History, especially that Of our own Country, it will nor have been written in vain.
