Tail of the Ptarmiqan.

One of the most entertaining Of chap
tiers in natural history is that which
relates to the many curious means
that birds and certain animals possess
Of deceiving the eyes Of their enemies.
Attention may be called to the follow

winter dress it has a black tail. One
might suppose that this would attract
attention to the bird crouching on the
snow, but. in fact. it serves for con-
cealment. Every projection on q snow
field casts a dark shadow. and that is
what the tail Of the motionlcss ptarmi-
gan looks like, the body of the bird
resembling a mere hump on the white
