THE OOLOGIST 



45 



had been pushing his way thi'ough wet 

 vegetation and had several times cross- 

 ed puddles of a depth that have com- 

 pelled him to swim, I found when I 

 picked him up that the down was al- 

 most entirely dry. 



At no time did the young bird utter 

 a sound, this being in marked contrast 

 to the young of the Ruffed Grouse, 

 which keep up a continual chirping, 

 which often helps to reveal their hid- 

 ing place.

The Oologist's Illustrations. 



We have recently had bound up a 

 complete file of THE OOLOGIST be- 

 ginning with the first issue of the 

 YOUNG OOLOGIST and down to date. 

 In running through the same, it filter- 

 ed through our mind that perhaps a 

 classified index to all of the illustra- 

 tions that have appeared in THE 

 OOLOGIST prior to the transfer of the 

 same to the present owner in April. 

 1909, would be of interest. 



During its long career, one hundred 

 eighteen illustrations appeared on its 

 pages before we took it over, which we 

 have classified and indexed under the 

 following headings in order that they 

 may be readily found by any of our 

 subscribers who may need them for 

 reference, viz.:
