A CURIOUS BIRD's NEsT.-Therc is a
bird in New Guinea, called the megapodius,
which, in the size Of its eggs and the
manner Of Matching them, must be con-
sidered extraordinary. 1t is not larger
than one of our ordinary fowls, but its
eggs are three inches long by two and a
half in diameter. 1t does not attempt to
sit on them. A colony of birds lay their
eggs together in large mound, in the
hottest part of the year, from September
to March, and leave them to be Matched by
the sun. The mound is made of sand
loose earth, and sticks and leaves, which
latter by their decay, increase the heat.
The mounds are wonderfully large being
ten feet high and about sixty feet in cir
conference at the base. The young birds
came out at hole in the top. The mother
birds wait on the trees around till their
chicks are Matched, and then each leads off
her own brood. How each knows its own
is mystery. The eggs are much relished
by the natives, but not by all Europeans.
A native Of Cape York ventured one day
into nest of eggs, and while he was
exploring the h dden riches of the large
mound, tho upper part fell in and he was
smothered. He was afterwards found in
the very act of digging--buried alive in a
birds nest.
