DO Btrds Enjoy Their own sinEinEf
1t may well be doubted II birds are
musical connoisseurs or have anything
like human appreciation Of their own
or of each others songs My reason
for thinking SO is this: | have heard
bObolink with Il defective instrument
so that its song was broken and in
articulate in parts, and yet it sang with
as much apparent joy and abandon as
any Of its fellows. | have also heard
hermit thrush with similar defect
or impediment, and yet it, too, appear
ed to sing entirely To its own satisfac-
ton. Il would be very interesting to
know ii these poor singers found mates
as readily as their more gifted broth
ers. II they did the Darwinian theory
of sexual selection" in such matters,
according TO which the finer songster
would carry or the female. would fall
10 the ground Yet it is certain that it
is during the mating and breeding sea
son that these song eombats" occur,
and the favor OF the female would
seem to be the matter i'll dispute
