birds study. He has boxes for the
purple martins, Carolina wrens, house
wrens, chipping sparrows and chick

by putting a piece of log with hole
in it, up in small tree. The birds
nested there and the young birds were
so tame Master Paul could handle
them, the parent birds perfectly con.
tent. He has book describing the
habits, and the various kinds of birds
and is taking great interest in the
work. A pair of Kentucky mocking
birds have also nest in the yard. He
takes one of the tiny chickadees in the
house and one of the old birds comes
in the window and feeds it.
