straight bills。   White…breasted Nuthatch。   Red…breasted Nuthatch。

The titmice or chickadees (Parinae) are fluffy little gray birds; the one crested。 the other with a black cap。 They are also expert climbers; though not such wonderful gymnasts as the nuthatches。 These cousins are frequently seen together in winter woods or in the evergreens about houses。 Chickadees are partial to tree…tops; especially to the highest pine cones; on which they hang fearlessly。 Cheerful; constant residents; retreating to the deep woods only to nest。   Tufted Titmouse。   Chickadee。

Family Sylviidae: KINGLETS AND GNATCATCHERS

The kinglets (Regulinae) are very small greenish…gray birds; with highly colored crown patch; that are seen chiefly in autumn; winter; and spring south of Labrador。 Habits active; diligent flitters among trees and shrubbery from limb to limb after minute insects。 Beautiful nest builders。 Song remarkable for so small a bird。   Golden…crowned Kinglet。   Ruby…crowned Kinglet。

The one representative of the distinctly American subfamily of gnatcatchers (Polioptilinae) that we have; is a small blue…gray bird; whitish below。 It is rarely found outside moist; low tracts of woodland; where insects abound。 These it takes on the wing with wonderful dexterity。 It is exceedingly graceful and assumes many charming postures。 A bird of trees; nesting in the high branches。 A bird of strong character and an exquisitely finished though feeble songster。    Blue…gray Gnatcatcher。

Family Turdidae: THRUSHES; BLUEBIRDS; ETC。

This group includes our finest songsters。 Birds of moderate size; stout build; as a rule; inhabitants of woodlands; but the robin and the bluebird are notable exceptions。 Bills long and slender; suitable for worm diet。 Only casual fruit…eaters。 Slender; strong legs for running and hopping。 True thrushes are grayish or olive…brown above; buff or whitish below; heavily streaked or spotted。    Bluebird。   Robin。   Alice's Thrush。   Hermit Thrush。   Olive…backed Thrush。   Wilson's Thrush (Veery)。   Wood Thrush。

Order Columbae; PIGEONS AND DOVES

Family Columbidae: PIGEONS AND DOVES

The wild pigeon is now too rare to be included among our bird neighbors; but its beautiful relative; without the fatally gregarious habit; still nests and sings a…coo…oo…oo to its devoted mate in unfrequented corners of the farm or the borders of woodland。 Delicately shaded fawn…colored and bluish plumage。 Small heads; protruding breasts。 Often seen on ground。 Flight strong and rapid; owing to long wings。    Mourning or Carolina Dove。
