THE PROTHONOTARY WARBLER.
'E Prothonotary or Golden Swamp Warbler is one of the very handsomest
of American birds, being noted for the pureness and mellowness of its plumage. It is found in the West Indies and Central America as a migrant, and
in the southern region of the United States. In the Central West it appears as far
north as Kansas, Central Illinois, and Missouri. Its favorite resorts are creeks and
lagoons, overshadowed by large trees, as well as the borders of sheets of water and
the interior of forests. It returns early in March to the Southern states, but to
Kentucky not before the last of April, leaving in October. A single brood only is
raised in a season. A very pretty nest is sometimes built within a woodpecker's
hole in a stump of a tree not more than three feet high. Where this occurs the
nest is not shaped round, but is made 1 j conform to the irregular cavity of the
stump. This cavity is deepest at one end, and the nest is closely packed with dried
leaves, broken bits of grasses, stems, mosses, decayed wood, and other material, the
upper part interwoven with fine roots, varying in size but all strong, wiry, and
slender, and lined with hair. Other nests have been discovered which were circular
in shape. In one instance the nest was built in a brace hole in a mill, where the
birds could be watched closely as they carried in the materials. They were not
alarmed by the presence of the observers but seemed quite tame.
In restlessness few birds equal this species. • Not a nook nor corner of his
domain but is repeatedly visited during the day.
' ' Now he sings a few times from the top of some tall willow that leans out over
the stream, sitting motionless among the marsh foliage, fully aware, perhaps, of
the protection afforded by his harmonizing tints. The next moment he descends to
the cool shadows beneath, where dark, coffee-colored waters, the overflow of a pond
or river, stretch back among the trees. Here he loves to hop about the floating
drift-wood, wet by the lapping of^pulsating^Vavelets, now following up some long,
inclining, half submerged log, peeping into every crevice and occasionally dragging
forth from its concealment a spider or small beetle, turning alternately its bright
yellow breast and olive back toward the light ; now jetting his beautiful tail, or
quivering his wings tremulously ,^he darts off into some thicket in response to some
call from his mate ; or, flying to a neighboring tree trunk, clings for a moment
against the mossy hole to pipe his little strain, or look up the exact whereabouts of
some suspected insect prize."

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."
