J_)a(t:imore Orioles Ne3t 29J 294 IN THE CHILDS WORLD. that would be strong enough to hold a mother bird and her eggs,and, by and by, the young birds? (If practicable let the childrengather materials and attempt making a nest, and they -will be themore impressed -with the -wondrous skill of the bird.) How do the birds get all these things for building their nests?They have to find them. Can they carry much at one time?Just think how many times they must fly back and forth beforethey can have enough. Perhaps you can put some strings andthreads out of doors where the birds can see them easily and getthem. Shouldnt you like to give something towards building abirds nest? What tools does a bird use? Only her beak and her feet; andyet she can weave, or sew, or plaster, or bore holes, or dig, justas she finds the best and safest way for making her nest. Of all the weavers that I know the oriole is the best. Hernest is like a deep pocket and so closely woven that the rain can-not get through
