Letters from Young Bird Students 



The class is studying about i)irds. 1 

 will tell you how the bird I am lliiiiking 

 of looks. It is the Chickin Hawk. lie is 

 the color of the Irei's an<l nou (aniiol sec 



him very well. He makes a funny noise, 

 and he keeps flying around in a ring by 

 the chicken-coop and comes nearer every 

 time he goes around. I would like to know 

 how 3'ou are protecting the birds this year. 

 — H.AROLD W.ARXKR, Cleveland, Ohio. 



We have been studying about birds for 

 three days. I know some winter birds. 

 They are the Hawks, Sparrows, Snowbirds, 

 Crows, Bluebirds, and Doves. I would 

 like to know how you protect the birds in 

 the winter. I have read in the Press a 

 story of a Crow, and will now tell it to you. 



There was a little girl who had a birth- 

 da)'. Her aunts gave her some books, and 

 her father and mother gave her some nice 

 gold beads. Then she was happy when she 

 saw them and she laid them on the table 

 and went out into the barn and while she 

 was there the Crow hid them. — Ei.e.wor 

 Smith, Clevelaml, Ohio. 



For the last three days we have been 

 studying about winter birds. I was talk- 

 ing about the Snowbird. Its wings and 

 tail are black and its back is brown. 

 Under its wings is a white patch and it has 

 a red dot on its head. Will you please tell 

 me how you take care of the winter birds? 

 What is the Snowbird fed on? What do 

 the Eagles, Sea Gulls, and Hawks get 

 fed on and when will you have the ne.xt 

 bird pictures oui? — R.wmonu Hahnkr, 

 CI rvrl, 111(1. Ohio. 



Man^- pcoi)!c tliink llial birds have no 

 love for each other, but they do. Once 

 there were some birds and they were jiick- 

 ing something from the ground, but one 

 could not get anything because his bill 

 was crossed and he was the biggest because 

 the other one had fed him so well. 



I would like to ask you a few questions 

 about i)irds. What do you dt) to pri>tect 

 the birds? What kin«l have you? We have 

 been studying ab<)ut birds for three days 

 and I am very much interesteii in them. — 

 i-.nirii .\. S(iii;i.i.v, CliVilitnJ, Ohio.
