Excerpt from List of Birds Found in West Virginia The birds have been collected, mounted, and placed on exhibition in these rooms, and should be prized by those who have opportunity to study them. Few states have better collections. By additions, which we hope to make from time to time, the list will soon be complete, representing all the species and sub-species of birds that are found in West Virginia. The total list of birds, which the writer has compiled, includes about two hundred and fifty species that have been found by himself and other bird students within the borders of the state. There is no doubt that, after some years of observation, our list of West Virginia birds may include as many as three hundred species and sub-species. If this collection of 331 specimens, representing 193 species and sub species of West Virginia birds, is used as it should be, it will be such a help to those who seek to know more of the birds of our state that many persons will soon become interested, will be on the look-out for birds both common and rare, and will soon swell the list of our own native birds to far more than 250.

Excerpt from Forty Common Birds of West Virginia By feeding and housing birds we may increase the pleasure we have in seeing our feathered friends about us. Their songs bring cheer: their devotion to their young ones teaches a lesson of parental love. It is said in the Good Book that not a sparrow falls without note being taken. How much care are we taking to make the little bird's life easier that he may render more efficient service to us?
