Templeton's wonderful 112 a NATURE NEWS ad (By Arthur Slyfield) Member American Ornithologists' Union, Ottawa Field-Naturalists' Club The annual Christmas bird-cen- sus of the Burroughs Field-Natur- alists' Club shows the following species to be wintering in Oshawa and vicinity:--Herring gull, Am- erican rough-legged hawk, barred owl, screech owl, hairy woodpeck- er, downy woodpecker, flicker, blue jay, crow, purple finch, redpoll, goldfinch, snow bunting, tree spar- row, junco, house sparrow, brown creeper, white-breasted nuthatch, golden-crowned kinglet,--a total of twenty different kinds of birds, Last year's census recorded twenty- eight species. What accounts for the decrease? Best Season Winter is the best segson in which to begin the study of birds for the reason that there are fewer birds, they may be more easily identified, and they are generally hungry and consequently more ap- proachabje. Don't forget to feed the birds this winter, They need your help and encouragement in the bleak days that are ahead. If you care to make a collection of birds nests for your nature study classes |. now is the time. One hundred and twenty-three nests were counted during a short winter's walk, Few of these nests will ever be used by birds a second time, so no harm is done by making a collec- tion. The Burroughs Club has added two birds of prey to its mounted collection, Fine speciments of the American rough-legged hawk and the barred owl were given to the ciub by people who had shot them. Mr. Edwin Dixon, master taxider- mist, of Unionville, mounted them They will be exhibited in a few weeks at the Children's Library. The American rough-legged haw and the barred owl are both hizh ly beneficial and it is a great pity that they should have been killed at all. However, such s.aughter will continue as long as people are ignorant of value of Birds of Prey as a class. The only really destruc- tive hawks are the American Gos- bawk, the Sharp-shinned hawk, Cooper's hawk, and the pigeon COAL MALLETT BROS. hawk. Among Owls, the great horned and the snowy owl are (un- der certain conditions) of doubtful economic value, I urge farmers and hunters to acquaint themselves with the raptorial birds sufficient- ly to distinguish between friends and foes. Such knowledge would prevent much misdirected desiruc- tion of wild life.
