. The home life of wild birds; a new method of the study and photography of birds. Birds; Photography of birds. The Nest-Hole of the Bluebird. 73 fixed on the ground, and that a tent was then pitched so close to it that the birds could not fly straight to the entrance but had to flit first to the trunk, and then go around to the hole, it is not surprising that they held aloof. I waited exactly one hour and twenty-five minutes before the mother again brought food to her young. Meanwhile it was interesting to see what was happening, from a peep-hole of the tent. ]5oth birds would fly to the tree which they had known as their home, and mechanically go through their usual motions in approaching -, ^-^^ the nest, hopping first to this branch, m^^ 'W^ then to that, following a well-defined WmL « â - path, which they had traveled hun- dreds of times, and finally hover over the spot which was once occupied by the nest, as if to become assured that their eyes had not deceived them. These actions were repeated by both Bluebirds many times, 'hile they uttered their responsive phee- nr note. Again, calling eagerly, both would fly towards the new po- sition of the nest. Finally, the fe- male, who in this case assumed the whole task of feeding the brood, came to the stump, paused a mo- ment, quickly entered the hole and came out in hot haste. The absolute stillness, however, had restored confi- dence, for in five minutes she re- turned with a huge green grasshopper and in ten minutes was back again with another. In the course of each visit the plaintive call would announce her presence as she ap- proached with insect in bill, and alighted on a half-dead peach tree close by. After a momentary survey of the situation she would flit to the stump, sit for a few seconds on a dead branch at one side, then hop down, fly to the hole and catch on the bark or cling to the rough edge of the circular opening with her sharp claws, pausing there a tenth of a second, or long enough to cast
