    • 2005, Bill Bryson, chapter 30, in A Short History of Nearly Everything: Special Illustrated Edition, page 593:
      Perhaps nothing speaks more vividly for the strangeness of the times than the fate of the lovely little Bachman's warbler. A native of the southern United States, the warbler was famous for its unusually lovely song, but its population numbers, never robust, gradually dwindled until by the 1930s the warbler vanished altogether and went unseen for many years.
