The Mitchells have all sorts of bird life around their place this winter owing to the sheltered feeder built by their young son, Jim, in which birds find suet, cereal, peanut butter, cracked corn, or a mixture of all,- flav ored with bacon drippings. Simultaneously gold fish be gan disappearing from the pond near by, and with no tracks nor signs of animal maurauders, the Mitchells were perplexed to find 12 gold fish and two catfish dis appear. One day the family noticed an owl perched on the premises, and to him goes the blame for the missing fish. It is believed that the fish were en dangered owing to a crack in the bottom of the pond, which caused a low water level. Two fish remain. A grosbeak, which ordinarily frequents higher elevations, has been attracted to the sanctuary, as well as several unidentified species. A flock of blue birds has appeared, and Mrs. Mitchell notes that these friends usually leave in September, not to ap pear again until spring. Other visitors include wood peckers, robins, wrens, sparrows, blue jays, juncos and others. Mrs. Mitchell notes that many of the birds get into battles, but the lowly sparrows maintain their peace.
