Divinq Birds.

Water birds which are ordinarily
able to float high on the water can
also sink at win BY expeIling the air
which is inclosed within the film Of
feathers surrounding their bodies, thus
making them heavier than water. This
mechanical trick on the part of div
ing birds is probably familiar to all
who have watched the kingfsher at
close quarters and have noted the sud
den contraction In the birds apparent
size as 1t takes the plunge This is
much more easily observed in the case
of the startling, which sometimes inli-
tates the kingGsher BY plunging into
water for food. The shrinkage Of the
bird in apparent size Is very apparent
when, after lowering above the sur
face, it turns downward to diye.-zo-
ologist.
