PREFACE. ONCE the first edition of this little work appeared, many foreign birds have been introduced into England, which were scarcely known in this country, except perhaps to Orni- thological Societies or scientific collectors all that haye become well known in the bird- rooms or cages of amateurs, have been noticed in the present edition, which has been revised throughout, and considerably enlarged and due mention has been made of the important dis- coveries of Dr. Karl Russ, and other German naturalists, that many of the small Finches, and other foreign birds, could be successfully reared in confinement.
