"The great Hawk Moths now come dashing along, like the birds from whom they derive their name and whom they resemble in no slight degree while on the wing darting towards each flower and drinking its sweet contents by inserting their long trunks into its recesses, while they remain hovering in the air."
A beautiful collection of articles written by a nature lover published in various periodicals. Read about the wood ant, the green crab, toads, wasps and bumble-bees and the abduction of a hippopotamus. With charming black and white engravings.
