HE Connecticut Power Company
goes through a really strenuous rou-
tine on its bird battlefront Once
month linesmen check the poles.
When a woodpecker cavity is
sighted, it is packed with Osmoplas-
tic Compound which hardens and
re-strengthens the pole. The hole is
then covered with tar paper and
wrapped with wire cloth. At first the
pesky birds tore open the wire and

TV Menace


MANY householders have been
awakened at indecent hours by a
rat-a-tat-tatting on metal-roofparts,
but in the last few years they've had
a brand-new complaint. Woodpeck-
ers have an unfortunate weakness
for television antennae.
When they are pounding and ham,
mering away at even half speed,
Marilyn Monroe looks like Zasu
Pitts. But at full speed she is dead
ringer for Fred Allen.
Woodpeckers seem to cause more
than their share of inconvenience,
but maybe it does us no harm to find
out once in a while that we don't
have all the answers, and that some
energetic birds bent on solving the
housing problem can make US look
pretty silly. The End

Clipped out the compound, but the
company has finally found a wire
cloth too strong for a woodpecker to
tear.
One thing about it, woodpeckers
keep maintenance men alert and on
their toes. One company has had to
replace 80 poles in the past year.
some of them boasting individual
excavations nine inches deep and
five inches wide.
Telephone poles are attacked
much less often than power poles
because pileated woodpeckers sell
dom drill nest holes lower than 20
feet from the ground and they prefer
to be considerably higher.
1t should be noted that wood
peckers do not limit their depreda-
tons to poles. An alarmed lady of
Huntington. N. Y, recently wrote to
Audubon Magazine" to get some
advice about a flicker that was bor- .
ing large holes in the shingles of her
house.

Another power concern is at
tempting to find out if birds dislike
any particular colors. So far the only
clue is that in color-preference tests,
seed-eating birds declined to con-
sumo seeds that were tinted green.
As one unscientiflc observer COM
mented, 'If they don't like green, it
must be tough on them having to
live in treesp'
