BIRTH STUDY OF BIRD LIFE 15 RECOMMENDED AS A HOBBY For the past three years- a pair of card‘i‘na'ls have wintered' in the garden at the home of Dr. Lillian Langstaff, Church 5t. These birds with their brilliant red! plumage and large red billLs inhabit the southern states m-ostlry but are being seen more often in this district} In. con- versatio-n with Mrs. Langstaff who has taken a keen interest in the study of ’birds for quite a nwmlber of years we learned? that this pair of cardinals came regularly to feed every day quite close to the house. They would go away every evening, probably to the pond, but were black in time for breakfast the next mlorn. hug and- w‘ouldl spend the day among the trees anldl shrufbs. Unfortunate ly, and much to Mrs. Lang‘staf'f’s disappointment and concern, the female bird disappeared around the 1st of January and! the male bird around the 20th of February. Each rbirdl failed‘ to return, after its daily visit and it is thoughrt that they may have been destroy-ed by an owl. rather than by a thoughtless boy and[ his gun. Just in passing may we say, the harming of any bird‘s other than those oonsidered‘ pests, is a serious offeme for which a severe penalty is provided. .Mrs. Langstaff consumers the study of {binds a life-long interest. Heâ€" sides learning to identify the bird by its color, and sltudy its habits, it is interesting also to be able to recognize it by its song. The gar- dienI at the Lanwgstaf‘f h‘ome affords a lovely sanctuary for birds both winter and summer. During the winter the birds are able to obtain berries from! some of the trees and shrubs. Quite near the! living room window in the garden are hung some bags! of wet and peanuts and’ on the outside silfl of the window are two shallow bon-exs containing nut SJW-eerings. Tadkerd up at the side of the windlow is a. piece of log with holes drilled in it. These holes are fillLed‘ with suLt and the {birds perch on the log and enjoy their meal. Whifl‘e we were having this very ink tenesitin‘g chat with Mrs. ‘Langstafct' the chucade‘es came right to the boxes at the window for Some food. Farther dowm in, the garden 3. rpm- ple gracklAe was strub'tinlg aboult.

Last fall it was necessary for her to stay in- bed' for tw‘o months amd while there identified 31 d'iflf- eren't birds from her Window. Some of the bird‘s identified during the year were two pairs of d’owny Wood‘- hpeckers, one pair of hairy wood- peek-ers, orJe nuthatch‘, 8 chioadees. {1 pair cardinals, 5 pheasants, 1 'jurrico, an occasional tree sparrow. evenling‘ grosbea‘ks, red polilts and blue jays. Up to date Mrs. Lang- staff has seen 23 spring birds and anyone interested may be watching for the foll'owimg which are now here: Robin, son'g srparrow, purple grackle, l‘ed winged! blacldbivd. phoebe, IdflI-dleer, blue birdl, sparrow hawk and! the sharp shirmed horned lark. The latter bird comes in‘ Feb- rmary and is found around fences and! in fields. It is cal‘ded horned Iark because of the black feathers on each side of its head resemibili‘nug horns. Richmond Hill has a number of him enthusiasts and We would ap- prteciate any “bird news” they c0111?7 let us have. The organizafiion of» a Local Naturalists’ Ciuvb often has been suggested, particularly with the aim of imberveislbing chilldrernl o-‘f the community.
