pIumaoe Of the BIuebIrd.

OF the male bluebird Thoreau said:
"He carries the sky on his back" To
this John Burroughs added, land the
earth on his breast" The birds back,
wings and tail, chin and throat are a
vivid blue, while his breast and TANKS
are a chestnut brown and his abdomen
a dirty white. The female is very
much duller in coloring, often having
q reddish tone that extends from the
middle of the back over the shoulder.
The Seminole Indians say that the
male bluebird once flew 80 high that
his back rubbed against the sky,
which impaired to him its own azure
tint. Returning to earth, his wife so
admired his new coat that she deter
mined to have like one for herself
and the next morning flew away to
get 1t; but the day proving somewhat
cloudy, the color given to her dress
was not so brilliant as was that re-
ceived by ner mate.
