Bird Lover Points Out Varying Cats

q Watch a blackbird hunting for
worms on a lawn; he moves by hop.

But watch the wagtail darling
about on the lawn Or following the
plow, or hunting down by the
streamside-he walks or runs. He
glides as smoothly over the rough fur-
rows Of the field as If: he We're skating
on thin ice. SO graceful are his move
ments that he seems to be dancing.
h Why some birds should thus hop
after their prey. and Others run is q
curious problem, observes a writer In ~
Pearson's Weekly. AYsolution may be
found in the different life. habits Of
the hoppers,kand runners and IN the
different habits Of their prey. &.
TO hop on lawn after worms may
be the best way to disturb and pounce
upon them. But it would be better to
run after low-tlying winged insects.
u Walkers and runners as a rule are
birds who seek their food on the
ground and live chiefly on the ground.
Partr.dges and landrails are famous Is
runners. Rocks, larks, meadow pipits
and starIings live much on the ground,
and walk and run. 5r@
Hoppers, as rule, are Jpasserines--
birds with claws adapted to perching.
It Is natural for them to hop about
trees, and so they hop when they come
to ground. There are some excep-
tions to the hopping habits of tree
birds; thus the wood pigeon is a tree
bird that walks. i. s= s$s u ~ 4
