Chief Field Naturalist of the United States Department of Agriculture, Bailey is best known for his work in the western regions of the U.S. In this pocket-sized field book, he continues documenting his specimen collecting and observation work. Specimen numbers, their sex, cubic measurements and, occasionally, notes on bird behavior during certain times of day.
