Station KWIN 1400 K.C Diary S35rj of a ftjS Bird Watchei W Saturday, Not. 8 A lady called me up wondering what might be wrong because the birds did not come to a feeder that her husband had made and set up. I told her it often took the birds a while to find a feeder, especially one that had the look of newness. But with the coming of cooler weather and an in creasing shortage of food the birds will look harder to dis cover available sources. The number of people who feed birds must be very large. Most of us do it for our own pleasure in seeing the birds around as much as for the good of the birds. However, I am sure it does help to support a larger population of birds than could exist otherwise. The one principle that I try to follow in feeding birds is to be regular with it. If the birds become accustomed to finding food at a certain place and it is not there, they may go hungry. This is especially true when you feed in the late afternoon as I do, because if they do not have enough food and the night is cold they may perish. The feathers of bird3 make a warm covering, but they also have gpod furnaces inside them and they must have food to stoke the furnace. Sunday, Nov. 9 I was talking to J. H. on the phone and he asked me whether more house sparrows had come down my way. He devised a shocker on his feeding tray so that when they gang up on it he can give them enough of a shock to make them want to move elsewhere. Luckily they do not seem to have come down here. I have been feeding fairly late in the day and have had relatively few house sparrows when I throw out the chick scratch. They do tend to monopolize the suet feeder, though. Speaking of house sparrows. I was reading today in an English bird book lent me by J. H. that probably starlings and house sparrows are the most widely distributed birds in the world. They have either been introduced or gone on their own to a great many different places. Why people have in troduced them I don't know. We must credit them both with being highly adaptable creatures. Monday, Nov. 10 This being a school holiday as well as a preacher's day off we decided to take a trip to Lake of the Woods. My son and his boy friend were along, so we didn't make bird watch ing our primary objective. We wanted them to have fun and for some strange reason they haven't discovered that bird watching is fun. We found snow before we had reached the top of the Dead Indian grade and there was some all the way to the lake. It was very pretty on the trees and we (my wife, that is) took some pictures. At the lake it was quiet and pleasant. The summer crowds have dispersed. Cool breezes blew and it was rather chilly picnicing in the open. There were a number of birds on the water. The only ones I identified were coot, eared grebe and bufflehead ducks. On land we saw the inevitable juncos and Steller's and gray jays. The latter are the kind commonly called "camp rob bers." On the way home, near the foot of the Dead Indian grade we saw a golden eagle. An eagle is always a fine bird to see, when you are lucky enough to find one. Tuesday, Nov. 11 At about 4:30 p.m. I took a drive out north of town looking to see if I could find the place where robins or star lings were roosting. I didn't find that but I saw a most gor geous sunset of many changing colors. As the dusk was deep- pninsr I saw four marsh hawks hunting for mice in tne meadows above Hoover lakes. Thursday, Nov. 13 I received a letter down at tne Mail iriDune oixice. it onoincort a mnt rpmarkahle bird oicture cliDDed from an eastern newspaper. It shows a cardinal feeding a goldfish at the edge of backyard pool. It says the cardinal did this for a period of about two weeks. Birds will instinctively feed babies other than their own, but how one ever got started feeding goldfish is more than I can fathom. I guess that is why we have newspapers - to ten us aooui me wmigs Hap pening that we would never expect.-T.M. . Theserices effective 0110'' Monday30 YARDAGE SPECIAL SUEDE FLANNEL 36-in. wide.
