ornithologize1847

1847 S. F. Baird Let. 31 May in W. H. Dall Spencer Fullerton Baird (1915) iv. 167 I have pretty well finished ornithologizing this spring, and have done worse than ever.

1873 Amer. Naturalist 7 16 I strongly suspect that this bird has been mistaken by naturalists, who have ornithologized in this section, for the common American raven.

1993 Times (Nexis) 4 Sept. (Features section) Once, presumably, these ‘temple-haunting martlets’ built their ‘pendent bed and procreant cradle’ (as King Duncan, royally ornithologising, puts it in Macbeth) on cliff-faces.
