September, 1922 
Black-throated green warbler on nest 
repose these little industrious workers 
search the trees and plant life, ridding 
them of many destructive insects. 
The female black-throated green war- 
bler, shown in the photograph, proved 
to be a very interesting little bird. The 
photographer, while photographing the 
nest of a towhee, w'as attracted in the 
direction of a pine grove by the chirp- 
ing of young birds as the mother fed 
them. Quietly entering the grove and 
listening carefully, the chirping seemed 
to come from the direction high up in 
a pine. The photographer, quite sure 
that he had now partly located the nest, 
ascended the tree to the top, and sure 
enough there was the little home, being 
horizontally on two small branches that 
forked out from a main branch (as seen 
in the photo). 
Four little warblers looked out on 
their domain composed mostly of sur- 
rounding pine needles, blue sky and 
Avhite clouds, their cozy abode consisting 
of dead grass, fine roots, interwoven 
and lined with hair. 
The photographer now began to 
make arrangements to set up his cam- 
era and found the footing rather pre- 
carious, as some forty feet or more of 
space were between him and the ground, 
but by skillful maneuvering he finally 
accomplished his task, and the camera 
was focused on the nest and a cord at- 
tached to the release. 
Descending part way down the tree 
and locating himself so as to see the 
nest the best he could through the haze 
of pine needles and many branches, he 
waited patiently, string in hand, for 
the return of the bird. After a little 
time she made her appearance, hopping 
sprightly from branch to branch with 
a horse-fly firmly grasped in her strong 
little beak. Spying the camera (unlike 
most of her kind) she seemed to cast 
all fears aside and alighted on the nest. 
She was about to feed her young when 
the photographer, who had been watch- 
ing her closely, pulled the cord, and the 
picture was taken. 
How faithful this little bird; how- 
constant and loyal ! She would never 
fail her little ones unless some harm 
befell her. Away she flies in quest of 
more provender, and soon returns w-ith 
a struggling brown tail moth, and later 
‘ a green worm is added to her catch. 
What Game Are Y ou Going After 
T ell any sportsman 
that there are 3000 dif- 
ferent shotgun loads scat- 
tered about the country — 
and you are likely to get an 
amazed smile. 
He knows that there are only 
about twenty different kinds of 
game to be taken with shells. 
Evidently there is a lot of shell- 
making going on that doesn’t 
serve anybody.
