Hix food |comes in such small bites (insect eggs be- [ing very minute affair). it is little wonder Jthat he finds no time for loafing on the | job, particularly if he expects to store away sufficient fuel to keep his grate burning through the long winter night. The claws on his hinder toce sre very Hong and strong, so he can just hang him- jself up in any position, and give his undiv- ided attention to his egg hunt. Like a fly, | he runs slong underneath 9 limb, carefully scanuine the bark ax he goes, tapping light- ly here and there. He is just ax sociable and good-natured as he is business-like. If other birds should happen topbe feeding on the same tree. he docsn't notice them in the lesat, but keeps right on with his work, rubbing shoulders with a yellow:hammer or a woodpecker in the most democratic fash- ion imaginable. If his strenuous hunt brings him down the trunk, within a foot or two of your head, he shows no fear whatever, but with # friendly glance in your direction goes on prying up the decaying wood and gazing into crevices, just as if you were a hundred miles away. He has evidently come to the conclusion-that humans. as big and dangerous s« they look, are not going to harm him--hence. his confiding ways. His grey coat, with its irregular trimmings of black and white, blends so well with the gtey bark ond the white Mchen that even a hawk would have to look sharp to find him, He sometimes spends days at a time in a single clump of trees, flitting from one to another, but more for exercise than to find better feeding grounds. When nature was apportioning out the voices and songs among the birds ,our amall It is only when he strikes a rich vein of larvae or eggs that he remarks, in casual sort of way, "Quank! Quank!" And that's about all we ever hear from him, We certainly sym- pathize with him during his courting days if he tries to aqueese any of the pathos of [love in so queer a sound as "quank!"" A funny thing sbout -him is his misfit feathers, those on his back being large y or a thrush, 5 'About Thanksgiving time a pine grove is bia special delight. The trees are so tall ond straight, with such vast areas of bark to be surveyed; and then, up among the dark, green needles, he finds the Inrvae of many insects, At one time it was thought the nuthatch- es migrated in flocks whon spring came, but now it is known that they only retire ta the thickest and coolest woods. far re- moved from farmhouses and civilization, Like their big, noisy cousins, the wood- peckers, they bore out holes in decaying trees; but, unlike them, they are careful to line their nesta with the softest feathers and moss they can find, making a veritable eradle of down for tho nine or tén little white eggs, plentifully sprinkled with lilac!
