BIRDS, BEASTS, AND FISHES 



After rain you are sure to see these frogs hunting for insects 

 and flies. 



Their shrieks when cut in two, as often happens by 

 the mowers' scythes, are heartrending, and resemble those 

 of a child, as do they when killed by a rat or shrew 

 mouse; for the little shrew mouse can and does kill frogs 

 and toads. 



WOOD-SORREL.
