Excerpt from Notes on the Birds of Herefordshire: Contributed by Members of the Woolhope Club Hese Notes on the Birds Of Herefordshire were originally written for the purpose of being read at the Field Meetings Of the Woolhope Club; the Members of the Club most kindly helping, by contributing notes of the appearance of any rare or remarkable birds that had come under their notice. Several of the earlier sections Of the book were read in this way; but, by degrees, the scope Of the design was much extended, and all our Herefordshire Birds were included, as far as they could be ascertained. Dr. Bull then wished to publish the whole series of Notes in a separate volume, and had, in fact, completed and arranged the ms. For that purpose. He hoped by this means to increase the interest felt in our feathered companions, and to lead to greater care and method in Observing, naming, and Classifying the very numerous species that either inhabit or visit the county. His sudden illness and death prevented his accomplishing his intention; but his papers were fortunately left by him complete, and he expressed an earnest wish that they Should be published as soon as was possible. There have been unavoidable delays in bringing the work through the press; but it is hoped that the many friends who have listened to the papers in the field, or joined in the discussions to which they gave rise, will like to possess this volume, as a remembrance of one who so truly loved everything connected with Nature, Antiquity, and Science.
