Excerpt from Vermont Bird Club: Bulletin No; 1, May, 1906 The Vermont Bird Club has been in existence nearly five years. It was formed for the purpose of collecting and preserving information con cerning the birds found within the state; of creating and encouraging an interest in birds; of promoting scientific investigations and of securing protection of all useful species. Since its organization the feeling has existed among the members that the proceedings of its meetings should be printed, thus giving them tangible and permanent form and allowing those who cannot attend the meetings regularly to keep in closer touch with the work of the Club. The final expression of this feeling was the authorization at the last winter meeting of the publication of an annual Bulletin. It is not the intention to publish a bird magazine, simply a condensed record of the proceedings of the meetings. The Vermont Botanical Club will issue a similar bulletin and these are to be made of like form that those who wish may easily keep and bind them together.

Excerpt from A Preliminary List of the Birds Found in Vermont The following list of birds includes all species which have been taken in the State. A very few of the species given are no longer found in Vermont. A larger number have been found only occasionally, and some may never appear again. The larger part, however, of those listed are usually found within the boundaries of our State, and it is very probable that more extended study of our bird fauna will add a not inconsiderable list to that here given. This is probably most true of the water birds, for it has been difficult to obtain information as to these. One of the main objects in publishing this list which the authors wish regarded as in no sense final, but only provisional, is that fuller information as to our resident and migratory birds may be gained. On this account additions, corrections and facts concerning our birds are greatly desired. As to the present list all that we or any one can say of it is that it is as complete as it is possible to make it in the present state of our knowledge of the birds of Vermont. Before anything like a complete and final list can be prepared much field work must be done. While it is not impossible that errors have crept into the list, the authors have intended to make it as accurate and trustworthy as possible. Very few species have been included which have not been actually seen by the authors or examined by some competent authority. Species which are known in the State only as they have been seen during flight or at rest, but have not been taken, are not included.
