A Nut-hatching Nuthatch
On October 14, 1898, while on a short visit to my old home, at New Baltimore, New York, I sat down near a clump of trees and shrubs to enjoy the bird-life so abundant there.
* ACORN WEDGED IN BARK BY WHITE-BREASTED NUTHATCH
* Photographed from Nature, by F. B. Southwick
Here I saw the Chickadee carefully examining the fruit-heads of the smooth sumach, and twice take from them a mass of spider-web; then, flying to a limb, dissect it and obtain from it the mass of young or eggs. It was with difficulty that the food was disentangled from the silk, and I found on examination that much of it bad been so crushed, that it was impossible to determine whether the web contained eggs or young. While thus engaged, I saw a White-breasted Nuthatch, with something in its ​beak, alight on the trunk of a wild cherry tree. While running about over the bark, the bird dropped what proved to be an acorn, but immediately flew down and picked it from the long grass, and returned to the tree. A second time it dropped it, and then, after carrying it again to the tree, thrust it into a crevice in the bark with considerable force, and began to peck at it vigorously. This it did for a few seconds, when I jumped up quickly and, with wild gesticulations, frightened it away. It proved to be the acorn of the pin Oak (Quercus palustris), and as no fruiting tree of this species was nearer than the Island, in the river opposite, I concluded that the bird had carried it across the water from that point.
After photographing the acorn on the tree, I cut the section of bark oft, glued the acorn in its cavity, and the photograph shows the result.—E. B. Southwick, New York City.

# Axiochus (Spenser) (Modernized)

Axiochus

Translated out of Greek by
Edw. Spenser.
Majesty, by the Page to the right noble Earl
of Oxenforde.
AT LONDON, Printed for Cuthbert Burbie, and are to be sold at the middle shop in the Poultry, under S. Mildreds Church. Anno. 1592
[Modernized]] To the Right Worshipful Master Benedic Barnam, Esquire, Alderman and Sheriffe of this honorable City of London: health and happiness. (. .)
Orshipful Sir, I am bold (by way of dedication) to give ye this excellent Dialogue of Plato the Philosopher, for two reasons. The first, that so singular a work, done by a Heathen man, might as well florish in our vulgar speech, as of long time it hath done both in Greek and Latin.
The second, that your countenance might shaddow it from reproachfull slaunders, which common censures too lightly bolt out against the best endevours. But
concerning the special matter to wit, my presumption, without first acquainting ye here-with: thus I protećt my self. My familiarity with ye in your younger years, when sometimes we were Scholars together, and my present joy, to see ye so happy a succeeder both in your Fathers virtues, place, and Office: emboldened me to shew a remembrance of the one, yet reverently, and gladness of the other as well becommeth me.
If in this small gift, ye make acceptance both of the one and other, ye shall declare no less then each one well discerns in ye and joy him that every way is at your command.
To the Reader.
THis Dialogue of Axiochus, gentle Reader, was translated out of Greek, by that worthy Scholar and Poet, Master Edward Spenser, whose studies have & do carry no mean commendation, because their deserts are of so great esteem.
If herein thou find not the delightful pleasures his verses yieldeth, yet shalt thou receive matter of as high contentment: to wit, comfort in the very latest extremity. For his sake then be kind in acceptance hereof, and do him the right be very well deserveth.

The Myth of the Song Sparrow
BY ERNEST SETON THOMPSON
His mother was the Brook, his sisters were the Reeds,
And they every one applauded when he sang about his deeds.
His vest was white, his mantle brown, as clear as they could be,
And his songs were fairly bubbling o′er with melody and glee.
But an envious Neighbor splashed with mud our Brownies coat and vest
And then a final handful threw that stuck upon his breast.
The Brook-bird′s mother did her best to wash the stains away.
But there they stuck, and, as it seems, are very like to stay.
And so he wears the splashes and the mud blotch as you see.
But his songs are bubbling over still with melody and glee.
# Bird-Lore/Volume 01/No. 2/Photographing a Bluebird

By ROBERT W. HEGNER
With Photographs from Nature by the Author.
During the severe cold of January and February, 1895, most of the Bluebirds were thought to have perished. So it is with the spirit of a genuine Audubon that we hail their return in ever increasing numbers each succeeding spring. How sadly we should miss these little friends may be judged by the great commotion among ornithologists caused by their supposed extinction. In order to have more than a mere remembrance of their habits, I set out one day in the summer of 1898, at Decorah, Iowa, to obtain photographs of them in their haunts, and secured two interesting negatives of the female, as shown
BLUEBIRD FLYING TO NEST
in the accompanying illustrations. The history of the case is as follows: A pair of Bluebirds, after several previous attempts at house-keeping, and subsequent removals by ‘small boys,’ at last selected an old, deserted, Woodpecker’s hole in a fence-post, and built, as usual, a nest of dry grass with a softer lining of horse-hair. The birds had already begun incubating the three pale blue eggs, which formed the set, when I disturbed them. I crept within five feet of the post ​before the female left the nest and joined her mate, who had been keeping guard in a neighboring plum tree.
After focusing my camera to within three feet of the post, and arranging a string attachment, I concealed myself in some bushes about seventy-five feet away. I waited patiently for ten minutes before the female left the tree and flew down to the fence. The male followed close after, and they hopped about the post and wires, getting nearer and nearer the nest, until the female flew straight into the hole. A snap-shot, just before she reached the entrance, was only partially successful, but shows very clearly the pose of the bird's head and neck while it was in the air. It was made in a twenty-fifth of a second with the lens stopped down to sixteen. I disturbed the female several times before she gained the desired position at the nest-opening; but, finally, the snap of the shutter helped bring to life one of my best bird-pictures.
A knowledge of the bird's nesting habits is a prime requisite in avian photography. Much patience is needed, as failures are very numerous. A camera which may be focussed to within two or three feet is an absolute necessity in order to make the picture large enough. Most of my failures have been caused by the lack of bright sunlight, under-exposure, or movement of the bird the instant the picture was taken: but one good photograph is sufficient reward for many trials.

The Legend of the Salt
BY FRANK M. CHAPMAN
A great many years ago a little boy, whom I knew very well, accepted the advice of an elder, and went out with a salt-cellar to make friends with the birds. But they would not have him, even with a ‘grain of salt,’ and it was not until he was considerably older that he learned he had begun his study of birds at the wrong end. That is, you know, the wrong end of the bird, for it is not a bird’s tail, but his bill, you must attend to if you would win his confidence and friendship.
So, instead of salt, use bread-crumbs, seeds, and other food, and some day you may have an experience which will surprise those people who would think it a very good joke indeed to send you out with a salt-cellar after birds. I have recently had an experience of this kind. It happened in the heart of a great city, surely the last place in the world where one would expect to find any birds, except House Sparrows. But Central Park, New York City, the place I refer to, contains several retired nooks where birds are often abundant. A place ​known as the 'Ramble' is a particularly good one for birds, and during the past winter, when it was not too cold, I have often gone from my study in the nearby Museum of Natural History to eat my luncheon with the birds in the Ramble. Many other bird-lovers have also visited the Park to study and feed the birds, and, as always happens when birds learn that they will not be harmed, they have become remarkably tame.
This is especially true of the Chickadees, who, under any circumstances, seem to have less fear of man than most birds. When I
A BIRD IN THE HAND
Photographed from nature, by F. M. Chapman.
entered the Ramble they soon responded to an imitation of their plaintive call of two high, clearly whistled notes. And in a short time we became such good friends that I had only to hold out my hand with a nut in it to have one of them at once perch on a finger, look at me for a moment with an inquiring expression in his bright little eyes, then take the nut and fly off to a neighboring limb, where, holding it beneath his toes, he would hammer away at it with his bill, Blue Jay fashion.
One day I induced one of them to pose before my camera, and, as a result, I now have the pleasure of presenting you with his portrait, as an actual proof that nuts are much more effective than salt, in catching birds. So, after this, we won′t go out with salt-cellars, but with a supply of food: nor should we forget to take a “pocketful of patience,” which. Mrs. Wright says, is the salt of the bird-catching legend.
