SPRING 



Spring is here ! Spring to the bird lover, the 

 bird student and collector, means more than 

 to almost any one else. That is the time of 

 the year when his old friends return. The 

 birds and their songs, the flowers, the leaves, 

 all are the friends and intimate acquaintances 

 of the true bird man. 



In the woods, on the prairies, on the waters, in the skies, 

 even in the earth, his feathered friends are calling, — call- 

 ing to come, and learn of their mysterious ways and to in- 

 spect their homes. To look, to see, to marvel. What wond- 

 ers the Great Creator has wrought through our friends. 



Go, my friends, to the woods, to the sparkling waters. 

 Look into the skies, and dig into the ground, and see and 

 learn of the mysterious doings of this great family of 

 God's creatures. You will be better for it both in body and 

 mind. Then come and tell us all what you have found and 

 learned, through the columns of our little "Oologist".
