Tennxson.s LOVE- For Birds.

Alfred Tennyson was all his life o
great lover Of the woods and fields.
Trees. birds and flowers were his ev.
eryday companions. and he faithfully
studied the habits of Dame Natures
English musings. The lark. the night
ingaie. the owl and the linnet were his
favOrite birds. He was also greatly in
falcons. the cornOrants. seagulIs. etc.
and in the long legged sea birds. the
visitors to marshes and pools. He
thought the curlew. OF which he has
written in 'Locksley Hail." a very no
bic bird and loved its wild call over the
marshes. There are many references
to birds native to England in his
poems. and all of them show a thor
ough acquaintance with the individual
characteristics OF the different species.
At Farringford the poets garden was
the home of the wild birds of the
hedgerows. The bIackbrd and robin
and the smaller birds focked there in
great numbers. and it was considered
far more important that they should
feel welcome there than that the fruit
should be permitted to ripen undisturb-
ed or the garden be kept in proper
order
Domesticated birds also Tennyson
numbered among his friends. Brilliant
peacocks and more sober doves and
pigeons, he loved them all.

The old gentleman gazed upon the

and learned. The opinions expressed
