decorated with 3 large row of great
ocelli; these eyes are trimmed in
black-yellow in the center shading
to white and reddish brown. The
under plumage is brown variegated
with wavy markings Of black and
buff. The legs and feet are red.
There are no spurs. The female is
no raving beauty. Her blue face and
brown eyes are not helped by her
crest of stiff black hairs. Her up
per plumage is black and vermic-
ulated. On the secondaries, it is
coarsely hieroglyphed. The pri-
maries are brown, marked with
black, and the lower plumage is
black, marked with reddish buff.
She also has red legs and feet.
The dancing ground of the male
Argus has always been of interest.
This private arena is always in the
Jungle, on a slight promontory, and
kept absolutely free from debris of
every kind. The owner never wan
ders from this spot for a long time.
He appears to find it best to sweep
his dance floor often to keep 1t in
perfect condition.
When his nuptial plumage has
reached perfection, his voice at its
pest for broadcasting, the dancer
sends out his invitation. It is the
female who makes the decision She
accepts the lordly fellow or rejects
him. The fact that she appears is
evidence enough for the male-so he
displays for her and her alone his
lovely plumage.
The wings are spread their limit,
brought down in front until they
meet. The tail is erected, partially
spread until q vast vertical concave
fan Of feathers completely hide the
owner from view. He peeks through
two feathers to see what effect, II
any, his display has on his audience
she appears to be bored, but she
remains.
There are two slightly glossy eggs,
with a cream ground color and red
dish freckles laid. The male has
nothing to do with his offspring.
The food of the Argus Is CON-
posed OF true ants, berries, leaves
and nuts. Wire-worms are dug from
rotten logs. The flesh Of this pleas
ant is badly favored.
These shy, beautiful birds OF the
jungles have been raised success
fully in captivity. In their forest
home. they roost in trees: their enc
mics are few. since thu birds rossess
wonderful hearing and keen vision.
