Bird Criminals.
From Country Life.

A subject which has exercised me this
summer has been as to what bird IL IS with
a bill seemingly smaller than a jays
which plumbers others nests. breaking and
sucking the eggs.
In one small piece Of hedge / found one
~blackbird's and two thrushes' nests all
treated In the same way, the three showing
among them the wreckage OF eleven eggs
all similarly pierced and emptied. The
missed thrush has been suspected Of the Of
Tense and in this case 1 SHOULD suppose il
to be the missed thrush 4 it were not that
n pair of butcher birds nested In the same
hedge.
II Is perhaps unjust TO suspect the butch
er bird on no better evidence than its mere
proximity to the scene OF the crime and il
be questioned if the shrike would care
TO rifle the nest Of either a blackbird or a
thrush. A suggestion which | have not
seen made and which / throw out only as
q poss .b;lity is that the culprit is no burg
lar but neither more than less than one OF
the parent birds themselves.
