RED-THRoATEp LOON.

There are some creatures said
Mr.. Red-Throated Loon, "who think it
is very fine indeed to have a different
winter hat from their summer hat.
They feel so smart and so fashion
able as they go into the shops in the
winter and say, please show me your
latest winter hats and in the sum-
mer when they 60 in and say, Please
show me your latest summer hats
Nov it is all very well for them to
do this but they forget that there are
birds too who change their head dress,
or bonnets in the winter from the SUM
mer as we'll as they.
Il will admit that l am speaking of
my family and of myself. And l will
also admit that do not get different
kind of hat every winter like people
do.
THAT is because once / take to a
certain style l like it so much that l
have no desire to change it. In the
summer time my head is gray with no
white spots although there are a few
streaks at the back of my head.
Now l also change other feathers
besides my head feathers, just as folks
wear different winter coats from their
summer coats.
II will tell you how dress at both
times. In tie summer as | said my
head is gray and my back is gray too.
/ have a large patch of chestnut brown
feathers on the front part of my neck.
| have white touches underneath.
Nov in the winter l have gray and
white below but have white spots up
on my back l think it is nice to have
something cheerful and attractive
about ones dress in the winter time
and so / have chosen this fashion and
it is the fashion keep TO and the one
all my family keeps to.
1--WE change from one of these cos
tunes to the other summer and win
| ter, winter and summer. We can be
| told in the winter very easily too from
the HOlbOell Grebe birds by our win
| ter dress and by the fact that there
| aren't white patches upon the wings.
And also we can be told from the
Grebe birds because our feet are diff
| ferently shaped.
IF we did go TO shoe makers, which
| we don't, of course, so it is hardly
worth talking about, we could never
go to the same one, unless he was able
| to make very different styles of shoes
''Of course everyone likes to know
| about the kinds of nests and homes
the different families of birds have.

Throated Loon lays two eggs in June
which are olive colored and covered
with little black spots, very tiny spots.
We spend our winters in the United
States and then before the spring has
come we're on our way far up North
where there is cold weather.
1--WE like the Arctic ocean and you
know it's cold up there. When we
hear of folks going away for the sum
mer and going to what they consider
cool places we have to laugh. We hear
them talking about it in the winter
time.
Eyes, we have many cousins. There
is the black-tEroated loon, relative,
but he so seldom comes to the United
States that don't suppose you would
care especially to know about him as
you aren't apt to ever see him or meet
him.
He has fine red eyes as we all
have and re too runs over the water
as he Is getting ready TO fly for he
than most of US do.
"He too carries his neck way out in
front of him as though he wanted to
make sure his head would reach the
place he started out for first! We all
have habits that are much alike you
see. And Mrs. Black ThrOated Loon
lays two eggs also of olive color. But
let no one boast that they alone change
their costumes In the winter and the
summer for we do the same and there
are quite a number of other creatures
who do too.
"The whole trouble is that often
people don't know about us and so
they don't know that we have differ
ent costumes just as they do, even II
we haven't so manyw
