Flight of PeliCaRS.

In Macon when the sun was low
last Sunday evening our citizen.
saw a most unusual sight. There
came Il long line Of birds, propably
SIX or seven hundred, which every
one took to be wild geese. The
next morning Joe McDavid was
hunting three or four miles west OF
Macon, near Adams pond, and he
shot a yerp large bird, the like Of
which he had never seen before
The body was about rs large as Il
turkey gobbler, and it measured
feet between the tips of his
wings when stretched, and five feet
from the end of his very long bilIito
the tip ofhis very short tail. TC
the lower edge of the bill was at.
tachcd a very largo pouch capable
Of holding q halt q peck of meal.
Oae or two of these birds have
been seen irthis section in twenty
i've years, but this was the only
lock that ever visited us.
