Background:

On this page we feature a selection of original antique White Bird Egg prints.  The engraved prints are from a late 1800s edition of the Rev. F. O. Morris's guide to the Nests and Eggs of British Birds.  Following is a review of the guide from the 1800s: "This work gives the fullest information respecting the localities and construction of their nests, the number and peculiarities of their eggs, and all the instruction requisite for determining to what species they belong.  Each egg is figured and minutely described, and a number of nests are accurately drawn from specimens."

The Bird Egg prints were produced through an engraving process.  Each print is provided with a copy of the accompanying text page authored by the Rev. Morris.
