DISCRIMINATING FLICKERS 



The two flickers that have raised broods here for three years have 

 returned and they showed intelligence in picking their box. Last year 

 they sampled a number of boxes before they made their choice. And even 

 then the setting flicker wandered from the box with her nest to another 

 box, where she spent odd moments. She evidently preferred the second 

 choice, because on arrival this year she took possession of the second box 

 without paying any attention to the other boxes.

BIRD COMRADES 



(From the Brockton Enterprise) 

 Here's a true bird story that is vouched for by a Glenwood avenue 

 family. Seven years ago they first noticed that a robin and a blackbird 

 shared a nest near their home, their attention being drawn to the unusual 

 companionship from the fact that the blackbird had only one leg. Every 

 spring since then the two have journeyed back from a winter stay in the 

 southland, the blackbird spry despite its infirmity and robin redbreast 

 growing a bit gray in service. This year they are again at their old haunts. 

 One theory as to the odd friendship between the birds is that blackbird 

 may have met with the mishap that cost it one foot when a fledgling and 

 been given a refuge and adopted and brought up by the robin. Has any 

 Enterprise reader ever known of an instance to match it?
