The informal story of the Roseate Spoonbill. Many of the events that brought about the virtual disappearance of the Spoonbill from the United States are a matter of history. But the mystery of the species' peculiar status in Florida and unexplained return to the shores of Texas has remained shrouded. It is this mysterious curtain that Robert Porter Allen has lifted, in many instances for the first time, disclosing hitherto unknown behavior habits of these birds, their courtship, nest-building, reproduction and manner of feeding - their survival and its significance in the world they inhabit. 233 pp. Book has previous owners name stamped on cover page along with handwritten date. Dust jacket is chipped and price clipped. Foreedge is deckled. Hardcover book in good condition with illustrations. First Edition. Book Condition: . Good+. Jacket Condition: . Good. Ornithology, Birdwatching, Flame Birds, Roseate Spoonbill
