Dawson, M.J. The Red Kite. Caliologists’ Series No.1.
2nd. Ed. Pub. Oriel Stringer. 1988 pp.83 with colour photos. Small 8vo. Light spotting to top-edge of text block o/w. a fine hardback in nr. fine dw. Loosely inserted is an original typed note, we assume by M.J. Dawson, advising birdwatchers of the safe way to observe nesting birds since it refers to the clutches of eggs illustrated in two of the plates within ‘The Red Kite’. The note goes on to quote Desmond Nethersole-Thompson and then explains the legality of taking deserted eggs. Very uncommon to find this typed note.
Traces the distribution of the Kites from medieval times to the 1980s, and analyses the writings of past authors from the first printed books.
