Notes of a Provincial Wildfowler is filled with precise descriptions of bird behaviour, observations of their life cycles, and lyrical discourses on the habitats of the Russian steppe. Aksakov's nostalgic fondness for his homeland permeates his Notes, and his passion for the habits of his subjects provides a stark contrast with his enthusiasm for the shooting - and eating - of his quarry.
