some Very Greedy Birds That Are
Tremendous Feeders.

Despite the fact that "the appetite

For light eating, Investigations show
that birds are tremendous feeders. The
diet of the average kestrel "a small Eu-
ropean hawk is calculated at 1000
mice month. to say nothing of insects
and worms. The barn owl is as vora-
.ious as the kestrel An Investigator,
after eaging one Of these birds, gave it
seven mice one after the other. The
irst six Immediately disappeared, each
with gobble and gulp, and the owl
did it's very best to treat the seventh
In like manner Limitations of alb
iominal capacity, however, prevented,
and though the gobble came off the
gulp did not so that for twenty min
utes or SO the tail of the seventh mouse
tangled from the corner of the birds

pangs of hunger reasserted themselves
and the owl ate four more mice.
Four pounds would be heavy weight
for a heron Yet one Of those birds,
which was trapped in England, dis
gerged two recently swallowed trout,
one Of which weighed two pounds and
the other one and half pounds. An
other captured had contrived to put
away three trout averaging three-quar
ters of a pound apiece, although it was
only four months old, and another had
dined upon seven small trout, together
with mouse and a thrush.
Among the greediest birds are wood
pigeons, which will continue to gulp
down food until their crops are almost
at the bursting point. From one of
these birds, shot as it was returning
from a raid in the fields, no fewer than
300 grains of wheat were taken. An
other had contrived to cram down no
fewer than 600 peas. A third was en-
deavoring to sustain nature with $50
beech nuts and fourth with sixty
acorns.
