On a collection of Humming Birds from Ecuador and Mexico

Resumen

IN the summer of 1893 the Triug Museum received the most heautiful collection of Humming-Birds that ever reached Europe. They were collected by Mr. 0. T. Baron, mostly in Ecuador, and partly in Mexico and California. The most remarkable character of this collection is their preservation, for they are all stuffed />w the flesh in the most lifelike positions, as they were observed by the collector, who shot and stuffed them all himself. They surpass in beauty everything we have ever seen of Humming-birds.
