ANOTHER SCOOP 



With this issue of The Oologist we present to our 

 readers two half tone illustrations, made from photo- 

 graphs of the only pair of Whooping Crane in confine- 

 ment, anywhere in the United States. 



This bird is rapidly nearing extinction, and it is a 

 wonder that some of the great Zoological Gardens of the 

 World do not acquire these exceedingly rare pair of 

 birds. 



To be permitted to publish a photograph of them is 

 of itself an honor as well as a pleasure. — The Editor.
