BIRD LIFE IN WASHINGTON 
to injure it? At least it is a good plan 
to deceive our robber Steller Ja} r . A boy 
could hardly have the heart to injure the 
nest if he once saw the tiny builders at 
work. Two little mates make it. They 
go after a load of moss together, talking 
lovingly of their work as they fly. Tliev 
return together.

NEST OF BUSH TITS 
The weaving is done from the inside. 
One worker sits upon a limb and waits. 
The other enters at the narrow door; then 
how that big pocket trembles while he 
works and weaves. Then he comes out and 
sits upon a limb to wait while the other 
one enters to weave. Then off tliev go for 
another load of moss and lichens. 
Bush Tits are sociable, cheerful little 
companions. I have never seen them the 
least impatient.
