Title
'Bird Book' containing watercolour illustrations of birds and eggs
Description
The volume is a bound series of seventy-five watercolour illustrations of birds and one of eggs, some of which are annotated and dated (from 1802 at the earliest to 1831 at the latest) and which seem to be local to the Devon/Cornwall border: some are recorded to have been sketched 'at the boathouse', and Calstock is on the River Tamar. A number of sketches have contemporary manuscript notes attached.
Admin History
This is an anonymous volume which once belonged to C. H. Hopwood and was possibly written and/or illustrated by him.
