STARS AND STRIPES: COCK BLACK-BREASTED MEXICAN

QUAIL INCUBATING.


The bird will be found by regarding the grass-stem A— B, which roughly bisects the picture.

Above it is seen the bird's head, with its round, glistening eye between two broad white

stripes ; below it appears the bird's shoulders, the feathers of which are edged with a star-

like tracery.
