There Are Many instances of Odd place being selected by Birds for their nests and it a very curious that nearly every Case of the kind on record applies to Birds that built earlier in the year than is snal. Probably one reason is that during ther opening months of Spring there in a Scarcity of leaves making it unsafe to build in a shrubbery. Then again at this period of the year the soil a moist and it would not be comfortable to 3-Ek shelter in Banks or on the ground amongst the grass. Take Robins As an instance these Bird Are so tame in Spring that they will often Ventur on building their n its in dwelling houses As the following facts will Shew. Odd places of a pair of Robins recently built a next inside a child a g. Cai t found hanging on a cottage Wall the a a ame pair having raised a Tivit Brood set to work a Little later in the season and built another nest in the cottage on a shelf cd one to a motive trap. This must have been a very industrious Little couple for they were soon at to k again in the Kitchen but in another Corner his Tine amongst a bundle of newspapers and they actually reared a third family before july. Another pair once i built their nest behind a candlestick or. An old fashioned mantel shelf in an Essex Kitchen. There Are two instances of Robins budding their rests a in Church in the hollow on the Reading desk under the Isible and there is an interesting anecdote of a pair that built their nest in a schoolroom selecting a t i 3 a Hole in a bookshelf Over the head of the in font class thou be illustrations Shew that the Robin is fond of the company of Man. And yet it is a Bird that cares very Little mixing with its Neighbours. It is never seen amongst a flock but always singly or in pairs. Last year in a Wood a boy found that a pair of Robins had built their nest in an old preserved meat tin somebody had thrown away and had reared four or five Yean g it nes in that queer Home. A Biro s nest in a buoy. Even the Robin could scarcely find an odder place in which to build than that selected by a pair of fish Hawks. There is a buoy in Long Island sound near new York the top of which i s shaped like a grocery Basket and to this buoy the industrious Hawks carried enough Straw to build a nest. The same Birds occupied the spot for a considerable period and brought up their families apparently without difficulty. On the approach of a vessel the female used to Fly round the buoy in circles. During the Winter storms the nest suffer severe damage but the Birds accept their Fate with resignation for they set to repairing their dwelling As soon As Spring time arrives. To which kingdom ? a hush in the schoolroom prevailed each heart with expectancy burned. For the Kaiser was coming that Day and All eyes to the portals were turned. And new he has entered the room to that Kaiser so stately and proud he has gazed on each sunny head there that before Hin in reverence is bowed and now every heart gives a throb As before him is stationed a class and the Kaiser so great and so tall thus questions a fright Little lass. A to which kingdom belong Etli this Rose a a taking one from vase by his Side her Blue eyes were lifted to his a a to the vegetable a Quick she replied. A right right Little Maiden and this7 a and Forth from his pocket he Drew a fair jewelled watch with its Chain and then held it up to her View. Not a doubt to her Blue eyes arose As she stood a Neath the Kaiser a proud gaze. But Clear came her answer again a to the Mineral sir if you with a smile at her answer to quaint said the Kaiser so mighty and High a a and now Little maid can you Tell of which kingdom a member am i a poor Little maid a twas indeed a a specimen strange to her eyes she gazed at the Kaiser so talk but mute were her lips with Surprise. A specimen rare that Wise Little maid that question had not heard before of the kingdoms three to which he belonged that Kaiser it puzzled her sore. The elephant Gre at she had seen and the spotted tigers As Well and the Lions too with bristling mane and their kingdom she Cut uld quickly Tell. But a Kaiser a a never before had she seen one so stately and grand sure not with the Rose or the watch or the elephant huge could he stand a Sweet puzzled look filled her eyes. And she stood in a wondering Maze on the stately form and the kingly brow of the Kaiser she fixed her gaze. But now Springs a Light to her eyes As placing his hand on her head a a to which kingdom a he questions again a to the kingdom of heaven a she said. A Wise Little maid May thy words a prophecy True uhf ild. And when thou Shalt enter the kingdom above thou May St there the Kaiser behold.
