whQo thus carrying their eggs, and
thinks, with much show of reaeon, that
this custom has probably given rise to
the belief that they suck the Mgs of
other birds; to which we would add
the corroborative fact that they are
continually mobbed by other birds os
if they were mischievous robbers. The
egg, as most school boys know, Is very
variable in color.
When it Is hatched the young cuckoo
qpeodily thrusts out Its foster parents*
eggs, and even any young ones, shoul
dering them, as It were, on its back, as
Jenner (who actually saw the process)
describes it, apd then throwing them
out of the nest with a jerk. Most resi
dents In the country must have noticed
the ungainly looking young cuckoo
after It has flown from the nest, resting
on the lawn or on a tree in a helpless,
begging attitude, noisily calling for
food, which Is always faithfully sup
