Pathways of the Birds

From the Toronto Globe.
 Many of the birds, that course the conti- nent have regular routes of travel, from wi ich they seldom stray. They are but slightly influenced by the planting of fuch an obstruction as city in their long established courses.
 The Mississippi valley and the valley of the Red river make a popular route from the gulf states to the northern forests and Arctic shores. The eastern slope of the Rockies is another favorte line of travel. Point Pelee island is a familiar station on the route that skirts Lake Huron and reaches the Hudson bay country by the Bruce peninsula and Man itoulin island. Greater Toronto is an in scidental obstruction on the route by Lake Simcoe and the eastern shores of Geor- ggian bay to the Moose river country. Migrants following these and the coast routes are remarkably regular in their habits and show little variation as to times and seasons of travel. The present winter has been marked by a wayward deviation of the evening grosbeaks, which

 They are seed eating birds with great, strong beaks of manifest crushing power They easily tear the scales from the pine cones and pinch out the concealed seeds, and if they attack a neglected apple or bunch of rowan berries 1t is not the pulp of the fruit, but the seeds that are con sumed. About the size of the robin, but stout. slow and deliberate, they poise Hstolidly on the smaller branches of the pine, demolishing the cones and dislodg- inS the seeds.
