Book Description
Correspondence from English ornithologist John Gould (1804-1881) to J. Hearne, dated January 28, 1847, in response to Hearne's offer to procure for Gould specimens of all the species of Colibri (violetears) of Santo Domingo. Gould thanks him for his offer and adds his specific requests, which include three of four male birds "of each kind killed at the breeding season when they are in their brightest livery; one or two females of each and young males in all their changes from youth to maturity in which great variation will be found to exists." He also seeks "perfect nests and eggs" and the branches and leaves to which they are attached. Gould additionally notes that any information on the history and migration patterns of the birds would be useful. Also includes two typed transcripts of the letter.
