We feel that it would be useless to apologize for the unwarranted 

 blunder of our printer in using yellow on Red-breasted Nuthatch plate, 

 instead of reddish-brown. This sheet will be reprinted and sent to all 

 our subscribers with the April number, so that it may be inserted in the 

 proper position. Owing to the lateness of the date we allowed this 

 number to go out rather than have the magazine reprinted and two 

 weeks late. 



- We have had a great many requests for lantern slides from our neg- 

 atives. This month we have a series of.them listed in the advertising 

 page. We shall positively list nothing but boni fide photos of live 

 birds. 



Last month we published "Winter Birds" without the author's name, 



as he failed to put it on the Mss. It was by Mr. Berton Mercer, whose 



name is familiar to our readers as the author of several articles in 



former issues. , ul .v -a jh-n^h

We call our readers attention to the change in the address 'of the 

 Folmer & Schwing Mfg. Co., whose ad. is, in this number. Besides 

 making the Graflex, which, though expensive, is indisputably the best 

 all-around camera on the market, they make a full line or ordinary 

 cameras which are perfectly adapted to- naturgr. photography.
