THE: EUROPEAN KINGFISHER.
E Kingfisher occupies the whole continent of North America, and although
migrating in the North he is a constant resident of oiir Soxithern states.
The illustration on cover shows the European jMngfisher, formerly found in
England and portions of Europe in great numbers, but irow rarely seen, owing to an
unwarranted persecution by game keepers, and also by collectors who are always on
the lookout to capture this beautiful bird. The habits of European kingfishers are
identical with those of the American bird.
Like most birds of brilliant plumage, the Kingfisher is a very timid bird and
prefers a quiet and secluded haunt. It loves the little trout streams with wooded
jid precipitous banks, the still ponds and small lakes, the sides of sluggish rivers
and mill ponds.
Here in such a haunt the bird often flits past like an indistinct gleam of bluish
light. Fortune may sometime favor the observer and the bird may alight on some
twig over the stream. It eagerly scans the shoal of young trout sporting in the pool
below, when, suddenly it drops down into the water and almost before the observe^
is aw?re of the fact, is back again to the perch with a struggling fish in its beak.
Sometimes the captured fish is adroitly jerked into the air and caught as it falls.
Fish is the principal food of the Kingfisher, but it also eats various kinds of insects,
shrimps, and even small crabs.
It rears its young in a hole, which is made in a bank of the stream it frequents.
The nesting hole is bored rather slowly and takes from one to two weeks to complete. Six or eight glossy eggs are laid, sometimes on the bare soil, but often on
the fish bones which being indigestible are thrown up by the bird in pellets.
The Kingfisher has a crest of feathers on the top of his head, which he raises
and lowers especially when trying to drive intruders away from his nest. The
plumage is compact and oily, making it almost impervious to water.
It is said that few birds are connected with more fables than the Kingfisher.
The superstition that the Kingfisher when suspended by the throat would turn its
beak to that particular point of the compass from which the wind blew, is now dead.
It was also supposed to possess many astonishing virtues, as that its dried body
would avert thunderbolts and if kept in a wardrobe would preserve from moths the
woolen-stuffs and like contained in it. Under the name of " Halcyon," it was
fabled by the ancients to build its nest on the surface of the sea, and to have power
of calming the troubled waves during its period of incubation ; hence the phrase,
" halcyon days."

ALLEN'S HUMMING BIRD.
E Humming birds with their varied beauties constitute the most remarkable
feature of the bird-life of America. They have absolutely no representatives
in any other part of the world, the Swifts being the nearest relatives they
have in other countries.
They abound most in mountainous countries, where the surface and productions
of the soil are most diversified within small areas. They frequent both open and
rare and inaccessible places, and are often found on the snowy peaks of Chimborazo
as high as 16,000 feet, and in the very lowest valleys in the primeval forests of Brazil, the vast palm-covered districts of the deltas of the Amazon and Orinocco, the
fertile flats and Savannahs of Demarra, the luxurious and beautiful region Xalapa,
(the realm of perpetual sunshine), and other parts of Mexico.
Hr.mming birds are found as small as a bumble bee and as large as a sparrow.
The smallest is from Jamaica, the largest from Patagonia. Allen's Hummer is
found on the Pacific coast, north to British Columbia, east to Southern Arizona.
There are many birds the flight of which is so rapid that their wings cannot
be counted, but here is a species with such nerve of wing that its wing strokes cannot be seen — a hazy semi-circle of indistinctness on each side of the bird is all that
is perceptible. Poised in the air, his body nearly perpendicular, he seems to hang
in front of the flowers which he probes so hurriedly, one after the other, with his
long, slender bill ! That long, tubular, fork-shaped tongue may be sucking up the
nectar from those rather small cylindrical blossoms, or it may be capturing tiny
insects housed away there. Much more like a large sphynx moth hovering and
humming over the flowers in dusky twilight, than like a bird appears this delicate,
fairy-like beauty. How the bright green of the body gleams and glistens in the
sunlight.
Each imperceptable stroke of those tiny wings conforms to the laws of
flight with an ease and gracefulness that seems spiritual. Who can fail to note that
fine adjustment of the organs of flight to aerial elasticity and gravitation, by which
that astonishing bit of nervous energy can rise and fall almost on the perpendicular,
dart from side to side, as if by magic, or, assuming the horizontal position, pass out
of sight like a shooting star.
" What heavenly tints in mingling radiance fly,
Each rapid movement gives a different dye ;
Like scales of burnished gold they dazzling show,
Now sinks to shade, now like a furnace glow."

�ALLEN'S HUMMING BIRD.
'HE Humming birds with their varied beauties constitute the most remarkable
feature of the bird-life of America. They have absolutely no representatives
in any other part of the world, the Swifts being the nearest relatives they
have in other countries.
They abound most in mountainous countries, where the .surface and productions
of the soil are most diversified within small areas. They frequent both open and
rare and inaccessible places, and are often found on the snowy peaks of Chimborazo
as high as 16,000 feet, and in the very lowest valleys in the primeval forests of Brazil, the vast palm-covered districts of the deltas of the Amazon and Orinocco, the
fertile flats and Savannahs of Demarra, the luxurious and beautiful region Xalapa,
(the realm of perpetual sunshine), and other parts of Mexico.
Humming birds are found as small as a bumble bee and as large as a sparrow.
The smallest is from Jamaica, the largest from Patagonia. Allen's Hummer is
found on the Pacific coast, north to British Columbia, east to Southern Arizona.
There are many birds the flight of which is so rapid that their wings cannot
be counted, but here is a species with such nerve of wing that its wing strokes cannot be seen —a hazy semi-circle of indistinctness on each side of the bird is al.1 that
is perceptible. Poised in the air, his body nearly perpendicular, he seems to hang
in front of the flowers which he probes so hurriedly, one after the other, with his
long, slender bill ! That long, tubular, fork-shaped tongue may be sucking up the
nectar from those rather small cylindrical blossoms, or it may be capturing tiny
insects housed away there. Much more like a large sphynx moth hovering and
humming over the flowers in dusky twilight, than like a bird appears this delicate,
fairy-like beauty. How the bright green of the body gleams and glistens in the
sunlight. Each imperceptable stroke of those tiny wings conforms to the laws of
flight with an ease and gracefulness that seems spiritual. Who can fail to note that
fine adjustment of the organs of flight to aerial elasticity and gravitation, by which
that astonishing bit of nervous energy can rise and fall almost on the perpendicular,
dart from side to side, as if by magic, or, assuming the horizontal position, pass out
of sight like a shooting star.
" What heavenly tints in mingling radiance fly,
Each rapid movement gives a different dye ;
Like scales of burnished gold they dazxling show,
Now sinks to shade, now like a furnace glow."
