Описание: Excerpt from Bulletin of the Essex County Ornithological Club of Massachusetts, 1923 Conditions affecting bird life were about average during the year 1923. Cold weather and deep snows prevailed into the middle of March, but winter breaking at that time gave promise of an early spring. The following months of April and May were so variable In weather, however, that only an average spring was the result. The northern migra tion Was not far from normal and the list of birds made on the Annual Ipswich River Bird Trip was of usual length, with but few Species missing. Local breeding birds seemed to have had a good year, fine weather prevailing throughout the nesting season. A dry, warm fall followed and good southward migration lists were made by those who were afield. A somewhat early flight of sub-arctic birds encouraged hopes of 'a winter with many common and possibly some rare species, but this flight passed on leaving few stragglers. In spite of a warm and open December, few land birds were to be seen, but water birds, with the exception of the divers, came in large numbers.

This monograph serves as an effective and original critique of our impulse to name, classify and quantify wildlife. Todd R.

His work has been shown at numerous venues, including Carroll and Sons, Heiner Contemporary, and Jen Bekman Galllery. They've also been featured in a number of magazines including The Guardian, New Scientist, Time Magazine's Lightbox, Hey, Hot Shot , and the Russian edition of Esquire Magazine.] Forsgren is currently visiting assistant professor at St. Mary's College of Maryland, and has taught courses at a number of other institutions.
