A Birds White Feathers.

The occurrence of white feathers In
q birds plumage is very common. 1t
Is, Of course, due to lack Of colorfng
matter and is liable to appear in both
young and old birds. have known of
several old birds to exhibit this pc
culiarity (mostly In the wing feathers,
however,. and 1t may be due to imper-
feet nutrition and circulation as the
bird ages. have also noticed it in
young birds In a number of instances.
The phenomenon thus cannot be said
to occur simply as result Of old age,
but is rather one of those slight
changes In the birds system the
causes of which we do not know.
There Is this much more to be said,
however-when young bird starts
out with a few white feathers they
are usually retained throughout life,
