 and trees. They are seldom molested, as one of them is 

 scarcely a mouthful ;. but they have the same delicate taste

 jay, the wood pecker and the partridge, have a degree of 

 hardiness, equal to the severity of our winters, and are then 

 seen flying; all others avoid it, by seeking a timely retreat.

The SWAI.LOW appears in April, and disappears in August. 

 It was formerly supposed to migrate, but the evidences of its
