Gilbert White's "The Natural History and Antiquities of Selborne" (1789) may be of interest, if you aren't already famliar with it.
Also I recently read Scott Wiedensaul's "Of a Feather", a history of American birding, and the insights into some of the early ornithological figures may be of interest.
