Robie Tufts 1884-1982

Since it was last published in 1986, several new species have been recorded in the province, and the status of some of the birds has changed. And although such revisions have yet to be made, it is our hope that in putting Robie Tufts' book up on the World Wide Web, we can encourage dialogue among bird lovers, and perhaps one day, provide readers with complete, up-to-date coverage of Nova Scotia's avifauna.

We have provided readers with two ways to browse through the book.

1. The first is based on the idea that birds fall loosely under certain categories. For example, if you want to read about Loons, you can click on the "Water Birds" icon, and you will be linked to the first bird in that category. You can then move forward or backward through the category by clicking on the "previous" and "next" arrows on the page.

2. If you are doing a more specific search, you can use the keyword search option. This will draw up a list of documents containing the words you enter in the search box.
