Rare Specimen That Has Been Sc

A specimen OF the naked-throated
bollbird (Chasmorhynchus nudicollis)
has lust been received at the Zoolog-
ical gardens, London. The most re-
markable thing in connection with the
ballbird is it's powerful voice; 1t Ut
tcrs a clear, metallic note which can
be heard at a distance of three niles.
It's noise is like that produced by q
blacksmith striking his anvil. Some
times II repeats Its notes In quick
succession, sometimes at fairly long
intervals. There is no mistake about
tie voice of this bird; 1t Is loud ana
piercing, and would be heard above
tie din produced by every inmaSe OF
