Text Appearing Before Image:
TREE SPARROW The Chickadee or Black-capped Titmouse andThe Tufted Titmouse 31 The Chickadee I am cheery, black-capped Chickadee,With my head as dark as the duskiest tree;Im as gray as the boughs of the beeches bare.And as white as the snow that is lodging there;While my sides are tinged like the willow wands,That rim with yellow the streams and ponds. As I dart about, as I swing and I sway, No blinding storm doth me dismay, For Im borne with the flakes as they scurry along And I gleefully sing my tiny song: Chick-a-dee-dee-dee!

This poet, though he live apart, Moved by his hospitable heart, Sped, when I passed his sylvan fort, To do the honors of his court. As fits a feathered lord of land; Flew near, with soft wing grazed my hand. Hopped on the bough, then, darting low. Prints his small impress on the snow, Shows feats of his gymnastic play. Head downward, clinging to the spray. Emersons Titmouse 33 The Tufted Titmouse I am Chickadees cousin! I am gray tinged with red;No black velvet cap Do I wear on my head.Ive a tuft of soft feathers, Like an Indian chiefs,With which I express My joys and my griefs. I am merry and lively— An active athlete;I can turn somersaults. An acrobats feat.If my loud ringing call You should h
