_____________________________________________________________
[Transcribist's note: John Burroughs used some characters
which are not standard to our writing in 2001.

He used a diaeresis in preeminent, and accented "e"s in
debris and denouement. These have been replaced with plain
letters.

I substituted the letters "oe" for the ligature, used often
in the word phoebe. Simularly the "e" in the golden eagle's
scientific name is modernized.

He also used symbols available to a typesetter which are
unavailable to us in ASCII (plain vanilla text) to illustrate
bird calls and notes. I have replaced these with a description
of what was there originally.

Finally, he used italics throughout the book that I was
unable to retain, because of the ASCII format. The two
uses of the italics were to denote scientific names and to
emphasize. I have done nothing to note where the italics were
used, as I don't think it really has a great affect on reading
this book.]
