. A flying trip to the tropics. A record of an ornithological visit to the United States of Colombia, South America and to the island of Curaçao, West Indies, in the year 1892 . of selecting a suitable background. I havehad wounded birds from time to time ; but it is very difficult to RED-TAILED HAWK (LIVING BIRD). A FEW SUGGESTIONS. 173 get them in a good position; and the best pictures are but poor.When seriously wounded, their listless and dejected look is notwhat is wanted in a picture, and at the best the surroimdin<rs offences, cages, chains, or cords destroy the worth of the likeness.A dead bird is a hopeless task, and photographs of stuffed andmounted birds, with their dull, protuberant, and lifeless eyes are anabomination. I will venture to say that not one photograph in ahundred of mounted birds has the faintest life-like look about it. Leaving birds and turning to fish, we find a class that, as a rule, make elegant subjects for the photographer. With them I havebeen quite successful. The best to work upon are scale fish ofmoderate size; but I have made good pictures of sharks of fivefeet in length and of small fish of barely three inches. I would. GREEN HERON (MOUNTED SKIN). recommend this work to lovers of photography, and will give abrief explanation of my process. You will need a large sheet ofwhite blotting-paper, some small wire nails and pins, and a pair ofwire-cutting pliers. Select a moderate-sized fish, with uninjuredtail and fins, fasten your blotting-paper to a board, wipe the fishdry, and lay it in the centre of the sheet of paper. Cut off theheads of two of the wire nails, and drive them through the fish andinto the board, one near the head, and the other near the tail. 174 A FLYING TRIP TO THE TROPICS.
