A Kingbird’s Revenge. Of the courage and deeds of 
daring of the Kingbird, ( Tyr annus corolinensis ) , all ob- 
servers of bird life are aware, and yet but few persons I 
think realize the power and extent of warfare carried on by 
this spirited bird. A young collector related to me a little 
incident a few days ago concerning the Kingbird which I 
think is worthy of mention in the 6. & O. He said that he 
was crossing a field one day, when his attention was at- 
tracted by two Kingbirds that were pursuing a crow, which 
most likely had robbed their nest. The crow tried to dodge 
one of the birds, when the other dashed down on him like 
a flash. With a yell of pain the crow fluttered to the ground 
into a bunch of bushes as if shot. My friend walked up to 
the bushes, looked in, and saw the crow staggering around 
as if blind. He secured the crow, and upon examining saw 
a .small hole in the right eye from which the blood was 
slowly oozing. The Kingbirds as if elated at their victory 
were screaming overhead. — «/. C. Cahoon , Taunton , Mass.
