Book Description
Excerpt from A Systematic Catalogue of the Eggs of British Birds: Arranged With a View to Supersede the Use of Labels for Eggs The object of this Catalogue is, to offer a substitute for the prevalent use of printed labels for eggs. An Oologist who feels how important it is that every egg in his collection should bear a distinctive mark, to prevent its being mistaken for some other species like it in colour or in shape, will have experienced also the great inconvenience which arises from the common practice of labelling eggs, for the purpose of distinguishing them. Not only do labels disfigure the larger specimens, to which alone they are applicable, but they become altogether useless as regards the smaller eggs; since, in that case, they prove considerably larger than the eggs for which they were intended. Nor is the other method preferable, of writing in ink upon the smaller eggs, either the name, or a number corresponding with a catalogue of the collection. For, writing spoils the appearance of an egg as much as a label does; and in the event of an error, the name or the number cannot be rubbed out without risk of injuring the egg.
