BIRD NOTES Jess Spencer read an article at the Bird Club meeting, Saturday, from the National Geographic on the Paur aque, which is the Mexican equival ent of our whippoorwill. Like the latter, its enormous; eyes, large mouth arrayed with long stiff bris tles, and soft plumage equip it per-' fectly for catching insects- on the wing at night. It also resembles its northern relative m the intricate pattern of its feather markings, which run the gamut of odd-shaped spots, streaks, bars, and finely pen ciled vermiculate lines. I Rusty-brown, black, and tawny pre dominate on .the upper parts of the bird, and the breast is softly barred with soft gray over a buffy ground color. A white patch across the mid dle of the wing feathers and the white outer tail feathers shows up conspicuously when the bird flies. Its insistent cry "par-a-que?' or the English version "where-are-you?" can be heard from dusk till dawn, almost continuously. The writer of this succeeded in capturing a Pauraque by blinding it with a flashlight, but allowed it to escape after examination. Pecan roll cake was served. North Carolina nurserymen have a slogan which says that a home is not a home until fruit is planted oh the site.
