THE OOLOGIST 
had been pushing his way through 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.:
