Nets : and this voyce the cunning Fowler interprets thus,
that he hath not, as yet, all of them in his Nets ; nor
ever shall have, though he had six hundred Nets."
THE HOOPOE AND LAPWING.
Whether the following bird is meant for the Hoopoe,
or the Lapwing, I know not. The Latin version has " De
Upupis," which clearly means Hoopoes and the trans-
lation says, " Of the Whoups or Lapwings " I follow
the latter. " Lapwings, when at a set time they come to
the Northern Countries from other parts, they foreshew
the ncarnesse of the Spring coming on. It is a Bird that
is full of crying and lamentation, to preserve her Eggs, or
young. By importunate crying, she shews that Foxes
lye hid in the grasse ; and so she cries out in all places,
to drive away dogs and other Beasts. They fight with
Swallows, Pies, and Jackdaws.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
