CARRY SMALLER BIRDS.
Eminent Ornithologist Asserts Larger
Species Assist Smaller in Their
Annual Mlgrations,

II was an opinion held by many
in ancient times that small birds in
migrating were often carried on the
backs Of the larger. In Egypt, for
example, it was held that wagtails
were thus carried by storks. And
many years ago a Swedish naturalist,
Hedenborg, made some remarkable OBJ
seryations on the subject. During the
arrival of the flights Of storks at
Rhodes from oversee, Hedenborg fire.
quently heard the voices of singing
birds without being able to see them.
At last. after careful observation,
when a flight Of storks had just algbt-
ed, he saw that they had small birds
perched on their backs. The writer
of a recent book, "Recreations of a
Naturalist" Mr. j. E. Harting, has
some interesting remarks on this sub.
ject, Most ornithologists probably
regard the idea as a myth, but Mr.
Hartings remarks seem to admit a
possibility that there may be some
truth in it.
