Summary "Wild Birds in City Parks" by Herbert Eugene Walter and Alice Hall Walter is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The primary focus of this book is to provide guidance for identifying 145 species of birds that can be observed in Lincoln Park, Chicago, particularly during their spring migration. It is aimed at nature enthusiasts looking to enhance their outdoor experiences through birdwatching. The opening of the book outlines the authors' intent to serve as a simple introduction to wild birds for those interested in observing them. It emphasizes the pleasure city dwellers can find in watching migrating birds that often stop in urban parks to feed during their long journeys. The beginning also provides insights into the methodology for identifying birds, stressing the importance of observation and the use of practical hints over exhaustive descriptions, which allows readers to engage directly with the living birds they encounter in their local parks.
