. Our winter birds, how to know and how to attract them . k, is the first of our song birds to go tohousekeeping, the three or four greenish white, speckled eggs being laid as early as the first weekin March. Although the Horned Lark is a cousinof the Skylark, its song is a weak, unmusical twitterwhich bears but small resemblance to that of itsfamous relative. Perhaps because it lacks the in-spiration which carries the Skylark far up into thesky, there to pour forth its song, the Horned Larksings from a humble clod of earth as well as whilesoaring.

Possibly because he loves company and cannot find no OUR WINTER BIRDS enough individuals of his own kind to afford himcompanionship, the Longspur also associates withSnow Buntings. He resembles both Lark and Bunt-ing in general habits, but his reddish brown wings, the absence of horns and of yellow markings, and. Lapland Longspur the presence of a blackish patch on the breast, dis-tinguish him.

FIELD BIRDS in On our western plains Longspurs occur during thewinter in such countless numbers that after a severestorm in southwestern Minnesota, on March 13, 1904, several million Longspurs were found lyingon the snow-covered earth dead or dying.
