Colymbia is a book written by Robert Ellis Dudgeon and published in 1873. The book is a comprehensive study of the bird species known as the loon, focusing specifically on the common loon (Gavia immer) found in North America. Dudgeon, a Scottish physician and naturalist, provides detailed descriptions of the loon's physical characteristics, behavior, and habitat, as well as its vocalizations and breeding habits. He also includes observations on the loon's diet and migration patterns, as well as its role in Native American folklore and culture. The book is illustrated with numerous black and white drawings of the loon, its eggs, and its nest, as well as maps showing its range and migration routes. Colymbia is considered a classic work of ornithology and is still widely referenced by birdwatchers and researchers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
