Birds of March.
From the Rochester Post Express.

hOfneEteE
If we could but look through fairy spec
tacles we should see some wonderful
things going on in the air above our
heads Long lines Of birds move quick
ly. smoothly and gracefully through the
air by day and by night. What impulse
drives these little travellers back and
forth. north and south? 1t has been con-
tended that birds have a sixth sense. IT
peculiar instinct, the power of determin-
ing direction. 1t is certain that bird
which has once made a journey can find
its way back to the starting point.
1t is March that brings the birds that

and the ring dove. cooling from the tall
hickory tree.
The bluebird and the blackbird
The wood lark and the ployer,
March brings them back again
Because the winters over.
Many strange tales are told of the
plover. He is a wild and solitary crea-
ture. 1t is said that when Christ hung
upon the cross three birds came flying
near him. They were the stork. the
swallow and the plover. AS they flew
overhead the stork cried "Styrk ham,
C'strengthen him."l, and SO this bird has
swallow cried. "Sval ham," c'refresh
him"D and is loved by man. But the
plover shrieked Pun ham," ("let him
suffer!'D. and IT is not only Stunned by
men, but is under Gods ban until the last
day.
Other birds of March are the bIuebirds
Every one loves the bluebird. He is a
gentle little creature. with the red rust OF
the autumn leaves upon his breast Spring
and summer he sings to his mate. Then
there Is the saucy English sparrow. who
drives the buebird from our dooryards
and makes him dread his old-time friends
The redbird whistles from the tall cedar,
and the sun rises earlier and stays with
us longer. These are all hints that the
long winter days are over and spring has
come with hundreds Of little feathered
strangers hidden In the woods, the
meadows, hilltop and valley.
