Here, standing on the ledge of rock,
the eagle tears the food into morsels,
is a curious fact that near an eagle's
nest there is ususlly a storehouse or
larder some convenient ledge of rock
where the parent birdslay up hoards
of provisions, Hunters have found
remains of lambs, young pigs, rab-
bits, partridges and other game
heaped up ready for the morning meal.
Over its hunting ground the eagle is
king. It fears neither bird nor beast,
its only enemy being man. InSwitzer-
land, during the winter when
the mountains are snow-bound, the
eagle will descend to the plain in
search of food. When driven by
hunger, it will seize on carrion, and
even fight desperstely with its own
kind for the possession of the desired
food. Bwiss hunters tell many stories
of furious battles between eagles over
the dead body of some poor chamois
or other mountain game.
Eagles are very affectionate and
faithful to their little ones as long as
they need care; but the young
eaglets are able to take care of them
selves, the parent birds drive them
from the nest, and even from
the hunting ground. The young
birds are often taken from the
nest by hunters, who with

birds discover him before he

Darting at him with terrible fury,
they try their utmost to throw him
from the oliff ; and unless he be well
armed and use his weapons with skill
snd rapidity, his position is one of the
utmost peril.
The young birds are easily tamed ;
aud the experiment has already been
tried with some success of using them
as the falcon, to assist in hunting
game,
The golden eagle is an inhabitant of
the Rocky Mountains, but is very
seldom seen farther eastward. Aundu-

pairs in the Alleghanies, in Maine,
and even in the valley of the Hudson ;
but such examples are very rare, for
this royal bird is truly a creature of

The eagle's plume is an old and
famous decoration of warriors and
chieftains, and is constantly alluded
to, especially in Seottish legend and
song. The Northwestern Indians
ornament their headdresses and their
weapons with the tail feathers of the
ongle, and institute hunts for the bird
with the sole purpose of obtaining
them. Indians prize these feathers so
highly thet they will barter a valuable
