TAUGHT TO BUILD NESTS.
One
Feature of the Education
of
Young Birds.
From tho Philadelphia Inquirer
It is a common ciror tn believe that
with birds the krowlcdo of building
their nests Is innate. It Is a trade that
is taught to every bhd by its parents
and in Jut as i-vstematlc a manner ns
men are tiaincd to bo builders Birds
ar5 bom with the instinct to carry lit
tle twigs and the materials of which
nets aro made, but unless they nre
lnstiucted In the i.rt of building they
will just drop them In a pile and never
attiinpt to weave them Into nests.
It is after the voung birds havo learn
ed to fly that tho oldei ones legularly
teach them the process of Interweav
ing and lining that is necessary to con
htiuct nest j This is most complicated
and a trade peculiarly their own. it
cannot bo Imitated even by men To
arrange the little tvvU's no that they
will be hymnietrieal and strong enough
to hold tho weight of the mother bird
and four or five little ones to a branch
of a tiee requites good engineering
nbllty. Tho lining of tho nest is usu
ally at a much totter materlnl tnan that
of which the outside is made, and to
place this neatly Is nlso taught bj tho
ollr birds Humming birds will often
follow cows for dajs to pick up theli
t-oft hair with which to line their nests
and they weave It as compactly as a
plcco of flannel. 'Ircis that havo al
ways been In cages can never make
nesta nnd are pitiably clumsy even
with Mitton, wool and material that
ha been given to them
That nest building Is taught is also
tiue of those that squirrels and mice
build, ts well ns tecs, wasps and ants.
The green ant of Australia Is very
clever In the building of Its nest It
appearr to consldoi it an Irksome duty
that inn he hired out A small pplder
is thcreforo tialnrd to do this work and
acts as a servant In nil things Tho
green ants pay tho spideVs for their
labors in a coin that they enjoy It Is
by giving them to eat a portion of the
Innumerable little eggs that they, the
ants, lay. This is a most agieeable
arrangement for all, man Included, as
otherwise tho green ants would rival
ths rabbits In overrunning Australia,
