. [Articles about birds from National geographic magazine]. Birds. 118 THE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC MAGAZINE. Photograph by S. Prentiss Baldwin A YOUNG CHARMER The two Chipping Sparrows liave succumbed to the hypnotism of being placed on their backs, but will depart very suddenly when tliey come out of their trance (see text, page Ii6). They are among the easiest species to be thus charmed. When taken in the hands, most of these birds remain silent; otliers squeal shrilly. At Thomasville a Brown Thrasher was Ijanded and recaptured for eight successive years. A Blue Jay was taken there six different years, and Wrens four years in succession. At Hillcrest a Chimney Swift has been caught in the same chimney for eight years. A Black-crowned Night Heron was taken six years after it was banded. A Pintail Duck, helplessly sick from alkaline poisoning in the Bear River ]Iarshes of lltah, was cured and banded by Dr. Alexander Wetmore during the autumn of 1914. Twelve years later it was killed in south- eastern California, having escaped the perils confronting its kind for a longer pe- riod than is on record for any other banded bird. i; A N D I N G THROWS LIGHT ON BIRDS AS TRAVELERS The returns of ] lands from points where the birds wear- ing them have been captured or killed are illuminating as to the travels of individuals of the different spe- cies. A Chimney Swift banded near Thomas- ville, Georgia, in Oc- tober, 1924, was taken at East Kingston, New Hampshire, June 15, A Purple Finch banded at Pasadena, California, in jNIarch, was captured far to the north, at Porter, Washington, in June of the same year. Be- fore this it was be- lieved that the Purple Finches frequenting the lower elevations of southern California in winter were those liv- ing during the sum- mer in the higher ele- vations of the neighljorhood mountains. The travels of this bird may be an indi- cation that all the southern Purple Finches move southward each winter and are re- placed by those from farther n
