— 7— 

 After eating about all it could hold it would sieze 

 a cone in its beak and run around the cage, some- 

 times jumping from side to side. 

 During the day the bird was never still, either eat- 

 ing or playing all the time. 



One night the cage was left hanging to a pine tree 

 in the yard, the next morning the bird was dead, 

 the result of the evil effect of a cat's paws. 

 On examination of the stomach over seventy seed 



from pine cones were found.
