C. - AND GLASGOW AND DUBLIN - [Illustration] - - 1900 - - - - -The Flamingo - - -The Flamingo is most happy standing on one leg in a foot or two of -water. There he waits patiently for any fish that may come his way. -His colour may be pink or scarlet according to the part of the world in -which he is born; and when he is standing motionless on the look-out for -fish, his red body and long legs give him quite a military -appearance—like a soldier at attention. The Flamingo prefers a warm -climate, and by moving from place to place he manages to enjoy a -continual summer-time. - -[Illustration: The Flamingo] - - - - -The Vulture - - -The Vulture is a very useful bird, but he would not make a pleasant pet. -His home is in the sunny lands of the south, where he is always very -busy in tidying up for Dame Nature. When any poor animal is killed or -dies of old age the news seems to spread like magic, for although not a -single bird may be in sight, in the course of a few minutes Vultures -come flocking up from all sides. And they never leave their banquet -until they have eaten up everything but the bones. - -[Illustration: The Vulture] - - - - -The Magpie - - -The Magpie is not, as a rule, on good terms with his neighbours. He is -very noisy, very mischievous, and very quarrelsome, and is not above -stealing eggs from the nests of other birds. No doubt he clears the -fields of a great number of grubs and slugs, but he does so much damage -in the poultry-yard that he always goes the other way when he sees the -farmer coming. His nest is built very cunningly of sticks and clay, and -he surrounds it with sharp thorny twigs to keep out robbers like -himself. - -[Illustration: The Magpie] - - - - -The Penguin - - -The Penguin is a kind of humpty-dumpty bird. He is far too fat to -fly—the best he can do is to waddle. But his fat is very useful to -him, for it is a kind of greatcoat, and helps to keep him warm while -fishing in the bitterly cold waters around the South Pole. There is -only one time, in fact, when the Penguin becomes lean, and that is when -Mother and Father are bringing up their family. Then they seem to -forget all about themselves, and while the little Penguins grow sleek -and podgy, the poor old birds become so scraggy that their best friends -scarcely know them. - -[Illustration: The Penguin] - - - - -The Wren - - -When the nightingale, the swallow, and many other of our summer visitors -desert us, the little Wren remains through the long winter to cheer us -with her song. She is a tiny bird, but her song is very loud, and -sweet, and clear, and she may often be heard singing gaily even while -the snow is falling. In the springtime the Wren builds her nest in the -woods, choosing a place as near to the ground as possible, but later in -the year she leaves her snug home and takes up her quarters under the -eaves of houses, or as near as she can get to the dwellings of man. - -[Illustration: The Wren] - - - - -The Eagle - - -The Eagle has long been regarded as the King of Birds, just as the lion -is spoken of as the King of Beasts. There are some who say that he is -not worthy of this honour, but certainly few of his subjects would care -to fight him for the crown, for he has a remarkably strong beak, and his -feet are armed with the sharpest of claws. Soaring high up in the air, -he swoops down on his prey like a thunderbolt from the sky, and carries -it off to his nest on some rocky cliff or steep mountain side. Small -birds, rabbits, lambs, and fawns all help to fill the Eagle’s larder. - -[Illustration: The Eagle] - - - - -The White Heron - - -The White Heron lives upon what he can pick up on the borders of marshes -or the banks of rivers. He has a pretty large bill of fare, including -fish, frogs, rats, mice, and various kinds of snails, worms, and -insects. With his long legs he wades for some distance into the water, -and there he stands without a movement, waiting for the fish to come -within reach of his terrible beak. But at the same time he keeps a -watchful eye upon what is going on around him; for the Heron is very -shy, and if you go to call upon him, you will probably find that he is -not at home. - -[Illustration: The White Heron] - - - - -The Turkey - - -Although his gobble-gobble is now to be heard in every farmyard, it is -only a few hundred years since the Turkey first came to this country. -He did not come from Turkey, as people at one time thought, but from the -Continent of North America, where he is still to be found in his wild -state. Mr. and Mrs. Turkey are not always on good terms, for when -Mrs. Turkey lays an egg she has to hide it away to prevent her husband -from destroying it. In fact, he is a tyrant, and is not afraid of -anybody, except Father Christmas. - -[Illustration: The Turkey] - - - - -The Bird of Paradise - - -The Bird of Paradise is the most gorgeous of living creatures. From the -crest of his head to the last feather in his magnificent tail he is a -blaze of brilliant colour. And very proud he is of his good looks—so -much so that a number of these beautiful birds will assemble together -merely in order to show themselves off to one another. In New Guinea, -where the Bird of Paradise lives, the natives call these gatherings -dancing parties; but the poor hen bird, who is not at all good-looking, -is not invited. - -[Illustration: The Bird of Paradise] - - - - -The Barn-door Fowl - - -The Barn-door Fowl does not often live to a great age, but her life, -although short, is a very merry one. She is provided with a comfortable -home, in which she can cackle to her heart’s content, without fear of -being snapped up by her enemy the fox; and every day she receives an -ample supply of corn, to say nothing of worms, cabbage-stumps, cold -potatoes, and other luxuries. In return for all this she is only asked -to lay a fair number of eggs for our breakfast. If she will not do -this, of course the consequences are serious. - -[Illustration: The Barn-door Fowl] - - - - -The Adjutant - - -The Adjutant bird owes his name to his very dignified walk, which is -believed to be almost as important as that of a real adjutant on parade. -He is nearly as tall, too, as a British soldier, helmet and all, and has -an even better appetite, for he can swallow a fowl or rabbit, or even a -small leg of mutton, at a single mouthful. The Adjutant lives in India, -where he helps the jackal and the crow to eat up what no other bird or -beast will touch. When he is about, it is best to keep the larder door -locked. - -[Illustration: The Adjutant] - - - - -The Raven - - -The Raven is as black as a chimney-sweep, and very wicked besides. -There is nothing small or weak that he will not attack; but he is -particularly fond of ducklings, chickens, and young lambs. He is so -knowing, too, that in olden times he was supposed to be able to foretell -the future. In those days priests were specially appointed to study his -croakings and tell the people what was going to happen; but this was -before there were any newspapers. - -[Illustration: The Raven] - - - - -The Robin Redbreast - - -When snow is on the ground, and King Frost holds the woods and fields in -his icy grip, the little Robin Redbreast taps at our window for his -breakfast of crumbs. If we are very quiet and gentle, and are careful -to shut up the cat, he will even hop into the room and help himself to -the good things on the table. For of all the little birds that make the -woods glad with their song, there is none so fearless as this tiny -warbler with the red breast, the bold black eye, and pretty winning -ways. - -[Illustration: The Robin Redbreast] - - - - -The Condor - - -The Condor is seen at his best far up in the mountains of South America, -where he builds his nest on a crag a hundred times as high as a church -steeple. Although he is one of the largest birds of prey, he is usually -content to wait until the puma has finished a meal, when he sails down -and eats up what remains. But sometimes he kills a lamb or a goat on -his own account, and when he finds a meal to his liking he will gorge -himself until he is unable to fly. Then he is often caught and pays the -penalty of his greediness. - -[Illustration: The Condor] - - - - -The Goose - - -The ordinary farmyard Goose has only one business in life, and that is -to grow fat. The farmer does not teach her any other accomplishment, so -it is scarcely surprising that she is rather stupid. That the Goose can -be clever if she has the chance we see from the behaviour of her untamed -sisters, who are among the wariest and most intelligent of birds. They -live in huge flocks, and when they settle down to feed there is always a -sentry Goose on guard to warn them of the approach of danger. - -[Illustration: The Goose] - - - - -The Cassowary - - -The Cassowary may be said to be only half a bird, for though he has -wings he is quite unable to fly. But with his long legs he can run -along the ground at an amazing speed, and it must be a swift horse -indeed that can overtake him. His home is in the beautiful islands of -the South Seas, where he finds a plentiful supply of fruit. But he is -also fond of the eggs of other birds, and to assist his digestion he -will swallow any scraps of old iron or broken bottles that may be lying -about. - -[Illustration: The Cassowary] - - - - -The Pelican - - -The Pelican is a fisherman by trade, and his fishing basket is a part of -himself. Just under his bill is a large pouch in which he stores up all -the fish he catches until it is time for dinner. When mamma goes home -to the little Pelicans, she opens her beak and allows them to help -themselves out of this basket. Let us hope that she has had her own -dinner first, for they are greedy little rascals. - -[Illustration: The Pelican] - - - - -The Pigeon - - -The Pigeon is one of the gentlest and most trustful of pets. Few birds -can compare with him in swiftness of flight, but although he may -sometimes lose himself, it never occurs to the tame Pigeon to fly away -from his dove-cote, and seek his fortune in the wide world. Like the -house cat, he thinks there is no place like home. The Carrier, one of -the swiftest of the Pigeon family, will find his way home over hundreds -of miles, travelling faster than many an express train. In fact, the -Carrier Pigeon is often used to carry messages from one distant place to -another. - -[Illustration: The Pigeon] - - - - -The Guinea Fowl - - -The Guinea Fowl has been so long among us that we no longer look upon -him as a stranger. He was brought a long time ago from Africa, where -his relations may still be found, assembling in huge flocks in damp, -marshy places that furnish a good supply of worms and insects. Whether -he be tame or wild, the most remarkable thing about the Guinea Fowl is -his voice. When he is frightened or angry he gives forth a screech like -an old barn-door creaking on rusty hinges, and he does not leave off -until he and everybody else are quite tired. - -[Illustration: The Guinea Fowl] - - - - -The Jackdaw - - -The Jackdaw is a cousin of the Rook, and, like him, lives in flocks. He -makes his home high up in church steeples and old, ruined towers, where -he spends a great part of the day chattering and quarrelling. He -quickly makes friends with sheep, and may often be seen in the fields -plucking wool from their backs to line his nest with. He is easily -tamed if he is caught when just learning to fly, and, as he may be -taught to speak, he makes a very interesting pet. - -[Illustration: The Jackdaw] - - - - -The Duck - - -The tame Duck, although now in humble circumstances, comes of a most -respectable family. She is first cousin to the wild duck, who is much -sought after at certain seasons, and among her more distant relations -are the lordly swan and the graceful flamingo. As a swimmer and diver -the tame Duck has very few equals among feathered folk. Even as a -duckling she does not require a single swimming-lesson, but at the first -sight of water plunges boldly in and begins hunting for worms and other -delicacies. - -[Illustration: The Duck] - - - - -The Peacock - - -On his head the Peacock carries a crest of twenty-four beautiful -feathers, and behind him a train more gorgeous than that of any -princess. When he is pleased he lifts up his train and spreads it out -like a fan—a fan of such beautiful colours and so delightful a pattern -that it could not be made for a king’s ransom. In the moulting season -these feathers drop off, and then the Peacock is so much ashamed of -himself that he hides away until they grow again. His wife is not so -richly dressed; indeed, the poor thing is quite a dowdy person. - -[Illustration: The Peacock] - - - - -The Seagull - - -When circling between sea and sky, or skimming lightly over the crests -of the waves, the Seagull is a picture of beauty and grace. But all the -while he has a keen eye to business; and a sudden dive, a splash, and -the gleam of silvery scales tell us that another little fish will swim -no more in the deep blue sea. Like Jack Tar, the Seagull gets his -living on the ocean; but when fish are scarce, or the weather at sea is -more than usually cold, he makes his way inland, and is content with -worms and slugs and almost anything else that is eatable. - -[Illustration: The Seagull] - - - - -The Parrot - - -Until he is caught, put in a cage, and taught to say “Pretty Polly”, the -Parrot leads a very pleasant life. His home is usually in the very hot -regions of the earth, where he makes a pretty picture with his bright -plumage, flitting about in the dense forests with scores and hundreds of -his friends. He lives upon fruit and honey, and when he is not feeding -he is chattering and screeching. Even if his neighbour is pounced upon -by a tree-snake or a four-footed enemy his grief and alarm only last for -a few minutes. One parrot is never missed among so many. - -[Illustration: The Parrot] - - - - -The Rook - - -The Rook is a busy, chattering, cheerful soul, who loves plenty of noise -and bustle, and is never content with his own company. In order to have -his friends and relations around him, he builds his nest in a kind of -bird-village, or rookery as it is called, high up in a clump of tall -trees. The rookery is governed by strict laws, and one of the strictest -is that strangers are not admitted on any account. If any rash -new-comer ventures to begin nest-building, the old inhabitants set upon -him with beak and claw, drive him out of the rookery, and tear his house -to pieces. - -[Illustration: The Rook] - - - - -The Owl - - -Nobody could be half so wise as the Owl looks; but there is no reason to -suppose that he has more brains than the rest of us. By day he keeps -himself to himself, for the sun is bad for his eyes; but at dusk he -comes out from his hole in the belfry tower or ivy-covered wall, and -flits about the fields on the look-out for his supper. When they hear -his grim “Hoot-toot!” the rat, and the mole, and the little field-mouse -had better hurry home to their nests. - -[Illustration: The Owl] - - - - -[Illustration: TWENTY-SIX BIRDS] - - - - - - - - - -End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of A Book of Birds, by Carton Moore Park - -*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK A BOOK OF BIRDS *** - -***** This file should be named 52686-0.txt or 52686-0.zip ***** -This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: - http://www.gutenberg.org/5/2/6/8/52686/ - -Produced by Chris Curnow, Carol Spears and the Online -Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net (This -file was produced from images generously made available -by The Internet Archive) - -Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions will -be renamed. - -Creating the works from print editions not protected by U.S. copyright -law means that no one owns a United States copyright in these works, -so the Foundation (and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United -States without permission and without paying copyright -royalties.

There he waits patiently for any fish that may come his way. -His colour may be pink or scarlet according to the part of the world in -which he is born; and when he is standing motionless on the look-out for -fish, his red body and long legs give him quite a military -appearance—like a soldier at attention. The Flamingo prefers a warm -climate, and by moving from place to place he manages to enjoy a -continual summer-time. - </p> - - <img src="images/flamingo.jpg" alt="The Flamingo" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="vulture">The Vulture</h2> - - - - <p> -The Vulture is a very useful bird, but he would not make a pleasant pet. -His home is in the sunny lands of the south, where he is always very -busy in tidying up for Dame Nature. When any poor animal is killed or -dies of old age the news seems to spread like magic, for although not a -single bird may be in sight, in the course of a few minutes Vultures -come flocking up from all sides. And they never leave their banquet -until they have eaten up everything but the bones. - </p> - - <img src="images/vulture.jpg" alt="The Vulture" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="magpie">The Magpie</h2> - - - - <p> -The Magpie is not, as a rule, on good terms with his neighbours. He is -very noisy, very mischievous, and very quarrelsome, and is not above -stealing eggs from the nests of other birds. No doubt he clears the -fields of a great number of grubs and slugs, but he does so much damage -in the poultry-yard that he always goes the other way when he sees the -farmer coming. His nest is built very cunningly of sticks and clay, and -he surrounds it with sharp thorny twigs to keep out robbers like -himself. - </p> - - <img src="images/magpie.jpg" alt="The Magpie" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="penguin">The Penguin</h2> - - - - <p> -The Penguin is a kind of humpty-dumpty bird. He is far too fat to -fly—the best he can do is to waddle. But his fat is very useful to -him, for it is a kind of greatcoat, and helps to keep him warm while -fishing in the bitterly cold waters around the South Pole. There is -only one time, in fact, when the Penguin becomes lean, and that is when -Mother and Father are bringing up their family. Then they seem to -forget all about themselves, and while the little Penguins grow sleek -and podgy, the poor old birds become so scraggy that their best friends -scarcely know them. - </p> - - <img src="images/penguin.jpg" alt="The Penguin" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="wren">The Wren</h2> - - - - <p> -When the nightingale, the swallow, and many other of our summer visitors -desert us, the little Wren remains through the long winter to cheer us -with her song. She is a tiny bird, but her song is very loud, and -sweet, and clear, and she may often be heard singing gaily even while -the snow is falling. In the springtime the Wren builds her nest in the -woods, choosing a place as near to the ground as possible, but later in -the year she leaves her snug home and takes up her quarters under the -eaves of houses, or as near as she can get to the dwellings of man. - </p> - - <img src="images/wren.jpg" alt="The Wren" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="eagle">The Eagle</h2> - - - - <p> -The Eagle has long been regarded as the King of Birds, just as the lion -is spoken of as the King of Beasts. There are some who say that he is -not worthy of this honour, but certainly few of his subjects would care -to fight him for the crown, for he has a remarkably strong beak, and his -feet are armed with the sharpest of claws. Soaring high up in the air, -he swoops down on his prey like a thunderbolt from the sky, and carries -it off to his nest on some rocky cliff or steep mountain side. Small -birds, rabbits, lambs, and fawns all help to fill the Eagle’s larder. - </p> - - <img src="images/eagle.jpg" alt="The Eagle" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="white_heron">The White Heron</h2> - - - - <p> -The White Heron lives upon what he can pick up on the borders of marshes -or the banks of rivers. He has a pretty large bill of fare, including -fish, frogs, rats, mice, and various kinds of snails, worms, and -insects. With his long legs he wades for some distance into the water, -and there he stands without a movement, waiting for the fish to come -within reach of his terrible beak. But at the same time he keeps a -watchful eye upon what is going on around him; for the Heron is very -shy, and if you go to call upon him, you will probably find that he is -not at home. - </p> - - <img src="images/white_heron.jpg" alt="The White Heron" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="turkey">The Turkey</h2> - - - - <p> -Although his gobble-gobble is now to be heard in every farmyard, it is -only a few hundred years since the Turkey first came to this country. -He did not come from Turkey, as people at one time thought, but from the -Continent of North America, where he is still to be found in his wild -state. Mr. and Mrs. Turkey are not always on good terms, for when -Mrs. Turkey lays an egg she has to hide it away to prevent her husband -from destroying it. In fact, he is a tyrant, and is not afraid of -anybody, except Father Christmas. - </p> - - <img src="images/turkey.jpg" alt="The Turkey" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="bird_of_paradise">The Bird of Paradise</h2> - - - - <p> -The Bird of Paradise is the most gorgeous of living creatures. From the -crest of his head to the last feather in his magnificent tail he is a -blaze of brilliant colour. And very proud he is of his good looks—so -much so that a number of these beautiful birds will assemble together -merely in order to show themselves off to one another. In New Guinea, -where the Bird of Paradise lives, the natives call these gatherings -dancing parties; but the poor hen bird, who is not at all good-looking, -is not invited. - </p> - - <img src="images/bird_of_paradise.jpg" alt="The Bird of Paradise" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="barn-door_fowl">The Barn-door Fowl</h2> - - - - <p> -The Barn-door Fowl does not often live to a great age, but her life, -although short, is a very merry one. She is provided with a comfortable -home, in which she can cackle to her heart’s content, without fear of -being snapped up by her enemy the fox; and every day she receives an -ample supply of corn, to say nothing of worms, cabbage-stumps, cold -potatoes, and other luxuries. In return for all this she is only asked -to lay a fair number of eggs for our breakfast. If she will not do -this, of course the consequences are serious. - </p> - - <img src="images/barn-door_fowl.jpg" alt="The Barn-door Fowl" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="adjuntant">The Adjutant</h2> - - - - <p> -The Adjutant bird owes his name to his very dignified walk, which is -believed to be almost as important as that of a real adjutant on parade. -He is nearly as tall, too, as a British soldier, helmet and all, and has -an even better appetite, for he can swallow a fowl or rabbit, or even a -small leg of mutton, at a single mouthful. The Adjutant lives in India, -where he helps the jackal and the crow to eat up what no other bird or -beast will touch. When he is about, it is best to keep the larder door -locked. - </p> - - <img src="images/adjuntant.jpg" alt="The Adjutant" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="raven">The Raven</h2> - - - - <p> -The Raven is as black as a chimney-sweep, and very wicked besides. -There is nothing small or weak that he will not attack; but he is -particularly fond of ducklings, chickens, and young lambs. He is so -knowing, too, that in olden times he was supposed to be able to foretell -the future. In those days priests were specially appointed to study his -croakings and tell the people what was going to happen; but this was -before there were any newspapers. - </p> - - <img src="images/raven.jpg" alt="The Raven" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="robin_redbreast">The Robin Redbreast</h2> - - - - <p> -When snow is on the ground, and King Frost holds the woods and fields in -his icy grip, the little Robin Redbreast taps at our window for his -breakfast of crumbs. If we are very quiet and gentle, and are careful -to shut up the cat, he will even hop into the room and help himself to -the good things on the table. For of all the little birds that make the -woods glad with their song, there is none so fearless as this tiny -warbler with the red breast, the bold black eye, and pretty winning -ways. - </p> - - <img src="images/robin_redbreast.jpg" alt="The Robin Redbreast" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="condor">The Condor</h2> - - - - <p> -The Condor is seen at his best far up in the mountains of South America, -where he builds his nest on a crag a hundred times as high as a church -steeple. Although he is one of the largest birds of prey, he is usually -content to wait until the puma has finished a meal, when he sails down -and eats up what remains. But sometimes he kills a lamb or a goat on -his own account, and when he finds a meal to his liking he will gorge -himself until he is unable to fly. Then he is often caught and pays the -penalty of his greediness. - </p> - - <img src="images/condor.jpg" alt="The Condor" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="goose">The Goose</h2> - - - - <p> -The ordinary farmyard Goose has only one business in life, and that is -to grow fat. The farmer does not teach her any other accomplishment, so -it is scarcely surprising that she is rather stupid. That the Goose can -be clever if she has the chance we see from the behaviour of her untamed -sisters, who are among the wariest and most intelligent of birds. They -live in huge flocks, and when they settle down to feed there is always a -sentry Goose on guard to warn them of the approach of danger. - </p> - - <img src="images/goose.jpg" alt="The Goose" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="cassowary">The Cassowary</h2> - - - - <p> -The Cassowary may be said to be only half a bird, for though he has -wings he is quite unable to fly. But with his long legs he can run -along the ground at an amazing speed, and it must be a swift horse -indeed that can overtake him. His home is in the beautiful islands of -the South Seas, where he finds a plentiful supply of fruit. But he is -also fond of the eggs of other birds, and to assist his digestion he -will swallow any scraps of old iron or broken bottles that may be lying -about. - </p> - - <img src="images/cassowary.jpg" alt="The Cassowary" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="pelican">The Pelican</h2> - - - - <p> -The Pelican is a fisherman by trade, and his fishing basket is a part of -himself. Just under his bill is a large pouch in which he stores up all -the fish he catches until it is time for dinner. When mamma goes home -to the little Pelicans, she opens her beak and allows them to help -themselves out of this basket. Let us hope that she has had her own -dinner first, for they are greedy little rascals. - </p> - - <img src="images/pelican.jpg" alt="The Pelican" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="pigeon">The Pigeon</h2> - - - - <p> -The Pigeon is one of the gentlest and most trustful of pets. Few birds -can compare with him in swiftness of flight, but although he may -sometimes lose himself, it never occurs to the tame Pigeon to fly away -from his dove-cote, and seek his fortune in the wide world. Like the -house cat, he thinks there is no place like home. The Carrier, one of -the swiftest of the Pigeon family, will find his way home over hundreds -of miles, travelling faster than many an express train. In fact, the -Carrier Pigeon is often used to carry messages from one distant place to -another. - </p> - - <img src="images/pigeon.jpg" alt="The Pigeon" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="guinea_fowl">The Guinea Fowl</h2> - - - - <p> -The Guinea Fowl has been so long among us that we no longer look upon -him as a stranger. He was brought a long time ago from Africa, where -his relations may still be found, assembling in huge flocks in damp, -marshy places that furnish a good supply of worms and insects. Whether -he be tame or wild, the most remarkable thing about the Guinea Fowl is -his voice. When he is frightened or angry he gives forth a screech like -an old barn-door creaking on rusty hinges, and he does not leave off -until he and everybody else are quite tired. - </p> - - <img src="images/guinea_fowl.jpg" alt="The Guinea Fowl" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="jackdaw">The Jackdaw</h2> - - - - <p> -The Jackdaw is a cousin of the Rook, and, like him, lives in flocks. He -makes his home high up in church steeples and old, ruined towers, where -he spends a great part of the day chattering and quarrelling. He -quickly makes friends with sheep, and may often be seen in the fields -plucking wool from their backs to line his nest with. He is easily -tamed if he is caught when just learning to fly, and, as he may be -taught to speak, he makes a very interesting pet. - </p> - - <img src="images/jackdaw.jpg" alt="The Jackdaw" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="duck">The Duck</h2> - - - - <p> -The tame Duck, although now in humble circumstances, comes of a most -respectable family. She is first cousin to the wild duck, who is much -sought after at certain seasons, and among her more distant relations -are the lordly swan and the graceful flamingo. As a swimmer and diver -the tame Duck has very few equals among feathered folk. Even as a -duckling she does not require a single swimming-lesson, but at the first -sight of water plunges boldly in and begins hunting for worms and other -delicacies. - </p> - - <img src="images/duck.jpg" alt="The Duck" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="peacock">The Peacock</h2> - - - - <p> -On his head the Peacock carries a crest of twenty-four beautiful -feathers, and behind him a train more gorgeous than that of any -princess. When he is pleased he lifts up his train and spreads it out -like a fan—a fan of such beautiful colours and so delightful a pattern -that it could not be made for a king’s ransom. In the moulting season -these feathers drop off, and then the Peacock is so much ashamed of -himself that he hides away until they grow again. His wife is not so -richly dressed; indeed, the poor thing is quite a dowdy person. - </p> - - <img src="images/peacock.jpg" alt="The Peacock" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="seagull">The Seagull</h2> - - - - <p> -When circling between sea and sky, or skimming lightly over the crests -of the waves, the Seagull is a picture of beauty and grace. But all the -while he has a keen eye to business; and a sudden dive, a splash, and -the gleam of silvery scales tell us that another little fish will swim -no more in the deep blue sea. Like Jack Tar, the Seagull gets his -living on the ocean; but when fish are scarce, or the weather at sea is -more than usually cold, he makes his way inland, and is content with -worms and slugs and almost anything else that is eatable. - </p> - - <img src="images/seagull.jpg" alt="The Seagull" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="parrot">The Parrot</h2> - - - - <p> -Until he is caught, put in a cage, and taught to say “Pretty Polly”, the -Parrot leads a very pleasant life. His home is usually in the very hot -regions of the earth, where he makes a pretty picture with his bright -plumage, flitting about in the dense forests with scores and hundreds of -his friends. He lives upon fruit and honey, and when he is not feeding -he is chattering and screeching. Even if his neighbour is pounced upon -by a tree-snake or a four-footed enemy his grief and alarm only last for -a few minutes. One parrot is never missed among so many. - </p> - - <img src="images/parrot.jpg" alt="The Parrot" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="rook">The Rook</h2> - - - - <p> -The Rook is a busy, chattering, cheerful soul, who loves plenty of noise -and bustle, and is never content with his own company. In order to have -his friends and relations around him, he builds his nest in a kind of -bird-village, or rookery as it is called, high up in a clump of tall -trees. The rookery is governed by strict laws, and one of the strictest -is that strangers are not admitted on any account. If any rash -new-comer ventures to begin nest-building, the old inhabitants set upon -him with beak and claw, drive him out of the rookery, and tear his house -to pieces. - </p> - - <img src="images/rook.jpg" alt="The Rook" /> -</div><div class="page-set"> - - - - -<h2 id="owl">The Owl</h2> - - - - <p> -Nobody could be half so wise as the Owl looks; but there is no reason to -suppose that he has more brains than the rest of us. By day he keeps -himself to himself, for the sun is bad for his eyes; but at dusk he -comes out from his hole in the belfry tower or ivy-covered wall, and -flits about the fields on the look-out for his supper. When they hear -his grim “Hoot-toot!” the rat, and the mole, and the little field-mouse -had better hurry home to their nests. - </p> - - <img src="images/owl.jpg" alt="The Owl" /> -</div><div class="center"> - <img src="images/twenty-six_birds.jpg" alt="TWENTY-SIX BIRDS" /> -</div> -<div class="center"> - <img src="images/back.jpg" alt="Back Cover" /> -</div> - - - - - - - -<pre> - - - - - -End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of A Book of Birds, by Carton Moore Park - -*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK A BOOK OF BIRDS *** - -***** This file should be named 52686-h.htm or 52686-h.zip ***** -This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: - http://www.gutenberg.org/5/2/6/8/52686/ - -Produced by Chris Curnow, Carol Spears and the Online -Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net (This -file was produced from images generously made available -by The Internet Archive) - -Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions will -be renamed. - -Creating the works from print editions not protected by U.S. copyright -law means that no one owns a United States copyright in these works, -so the Foundation (and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United -States without permission and without paying copyright -royalties.
