Francis Orpen Morris (1810-1893) was an Irish clergyman, notable as "parson-naturalist" (ornithologist and entomologist) and as the author of many books on natural history and heritage buildings. He was a pioneer of the movement to protect birds from the plume trade and was a co-founder of the Plumage League. Morris' books were mostly published by Groombridge & Sons, of London. His first best-seller was "A History of British Birds" which was originally published in Folio from June 1850 in monthly parts over a period of some seven years.
