OF all the birds the tiny humming
birds art the most lovely. They look
like animated jewels as they dart about
from flower to flower IN the sunshine.
As is often the case with birds OF
beautiful plumage, they have no song
to speak OF. Moreover, they are as
quarrelsome as the saucy sparrow,
fighting with their mates as well as
strangers. They are very inquisitive,
too, their curiosity often. getting them
into trouble and sometimes even into
the collectors net. Like most wild
things, they cannot bear captivity and
usually pine away and die when Gagged.
Because they are such exquisite crea-
lures, the South American Indians call
them by the pretty names OF the beams
and locks of the sun. Fashion, Of
