A series of talks about the countryside
' Birds' Eggs'
Eric Parker
Eric Parker will stress the great variety of birds' nests in colour, size, and shape. Can we say that there is any law of coloration or any kind of protective mimicry as regards their surroundings ? Is colour acquired in a process of evolution? These are some of the questions to be dealt with in this talk, and the speaker will also discuss the methods of egg collectors and the need for protection of rare birds.
