Sachsen — ein guter Nährboden für Ornithologen

摘要

Many famous ornithologists were born in Saxony. One of them was Richard Heyder (1884–1984). Basically, he and his wife were running a general store but he was an enthusiastic and keen ornithologist. His major contribution to ornithology was his book on the avifauna of Saxony, published in 1952.
