snaps such as this one tt ve you ever thought of taking a series of candid or off guard pictures of the baby in dib lighter or more active moments and saving them in a special album entitled we knew him when any parent who owns a camera can build up a splendid collection of pictures such as this and if your baby is like most babies the same pose or expression will never pop up twice a small baby is probably the world s ideal subject for off guard pictures because he is altogether lacking in camera consciousness once he learns that jou wont let mm chew the corners off the in tercsting black gadget or pull the shiny piece of glass out of the front he dismisses the matter and pro ceeds to more important things thereafter you can shoot away to your heart s content ton don t need a high speed mini a tare camera to take candid pic tures of this sort a speedy lenb ls helpful because then you can use higher shutter speeds and catch the youngster when he is trying his skill at somersaults or endeavoring to smash his rattle to pieces and see what makes it work but a box cam era will do the work pr uy well i i job are careful to watch for momen tary pauses in the action len

grows in vilue as the years roll by i john van guilder the nmghbobxy houe wren usually begin looking and li lug for the buayubohng house wren late in april seldom does be disap point me x usually hear and see the first one about a small yard a short distance off where the renter hi long maintained a wren house for a pair of these birds as i near this yard x near his bubbling warble and a moment later catch sight of him tall pointed skyward as he hope in the grass perches on the branch of a tree or teeters on the wren box fastened to a corner of the house we have long had wrens for near neighbors the first pair to nest on the premises chose a knothole in the wall of the hen bouse for an en trance and built a nest 4n some litter used lor insulation then for a few years the birds nested elsewhere some years we saw tittle of them in the neighborhood but more often a male visited us sang bustled about and inspected every box and hole about the place sometimes he found a mate and the two spent no little tune with us before leaving and nest tog elsewhere finally i secured two pieces of hoi low birch and made wren boxes out of them the first was nine inches long and three inches in diameter part of a branch secured from a dead retl birch i nailed small pieces of jumbecs over the ends and thus gave it a roof and floor and a pair wrens nested in it and successfully raised a brood of youngsters the next winter woodpeckers destroyed this box ince the wood was sort and partlj decayed and they loved to ham mer at it the other piece was the same length as the first but seven or eight inches in diameter t split it nailed a board across the back of the half used gave this an entrance hole roof and floor and fastened it to a corner of the shed wrens have nested in this rustic box se era times woodpeckers drilled a hole in this box also after it had been in use two ears the new hole being on the eft side near the floor the wrens filled th bottom with twigs thus plugging the lower hole and contlnu ed using the original entrance that box ls still fastened to the shed and always reminds me of our little neiirh bors when i pass it for twigs still protrude trom the hole the wood peckers made we tore up an old fence the die of last april removing the wire and taking up the posts the posts were hauled to the jard sorted and either saved or relegated to the wood pile amorg the discarded posts was one that was hollow the hole being full of twigs like those used b wrens when nest building whenever i find a post ion branch or tree trunk that contais a cavitv of this kind 1 save the hollow part for a prospective bird box the hollo was near the bottom at about ground level so i reversed the ends and set the post in the ground a short distance north of the house the entrance hole now be ing three feet up true to schedule the wrens ar rived about may first last spring how the male sang flitted about searched and worked soon his mate arrived and the two began carrying twigs in to a hollow branch bluebird box southeast of the house no doubt nest lnc there though i was too busy to keep a close watch over their affairs then began hovering about the post i had recently prepared for them how the mate warbled and teetered about that hollow post eventully things quieted down the male to be sure still sang freely about the old post but nothing was to be seen or his mate then one day when i visited the vicinity the mother ap peired in the entrance hole ottered noes of anger and alarm and flew to a nearby tree where she was join ed by her mate both birds chatter ing and scolding as long as i remain ed in the neighborhood soon there were youngsters m fhe nest and the parents were kept busy early and late feeding them x have never been successful in photograph ing wrens so concluded here was my chance the young were quite large on july fifth and frequently were to be seen at the entrance hole on the sixth i placed a blind beside the post leaving it there overnight to get the birds accustomed to it the next day when i arrived with the camera an was quiet at the post the parents were not to be seen no young wrens appeared at the entrance i had come too late the nest was empty i found one youngster in a nearby mulberry anothef in a boxelder and still others about some young oaks thereafterfor more than a week we saw much of young and old birds 1 happy family that gave us much en joyment rfaturally i was keenly disappointed about not getting any pictures but a large and happy faro ly of wrerts about the yard is better
