The Eugene Guard tolls of the dis
covery by Claude Branton, of McKen-
zie, of a peculiar looking bird in an old
slough. The bird did not seem able
to fly, and by throwing rocks in the
water he irlchtened it out uoon the
ice, where he caught it. The bird is
about the size of an ordinary wild
duck, though rather more slender in
build and having a much longer neck.
It has . a bill about four inches in
length, which is perfectly round, and
taoers to a sharp point, being perhaps
half inch in diameter at the base.
Instead of having web feet this bird
has one small and three large paddles
or flaps with a toenail at the end of
each one, resembling very much the
human toenail. The bird has no tail,
but has short wings, similar to those
of the mud hen. In color its back is
gray, like that of a goose, while its
breast and the under portion of its
neck is light colored. Its head is
broad and fiat and has a black topknot.
Vhen left alone it stands erect like an
awk. The bird is very lively and
strikes with its bill at every one who
comes near it.. It has been pronounced
western glebe, and is extremely rare
in this section.
