.-. ; Knowledge ef turgory.
There are not a few birds that
possess a knowledge of tbe prin
ciples of surgery that is not far
from supernatural. The woodcock,
the partridge and some other birds
are able to dress their wounds with
considerable skill. A French nat
uralist says that on several occa.
ions he has killed woodcock that
were, when shot, convalescing from
wounds previously received. In
every instance he found the old in
jury neatly .dressed .with: down
plucked from the stem of feathers
and skillfullt arranged over the
wound evidently fay the long beak
of the bird. .. In some instances
solid piaster wu thus formed, and
In others ligatures had been applied
to wounded or broken limbs.
? One day he killed a bird that evi
dently had been severely wounded
at tome recent period. Tha wound
was covered and protected by a sort
of network of feathers which had
been plucked by tha bird from it
own body and so arranged as to
form a plaster completely covering
and . protecting the wounded . sur-
xace. it naa evidently acted, aa
hemostatic in the flrst place and
subsequently as a shield covering
tha wound. The feathers were fair
ly , netted together, passing : alter
nately under and above each other
find forming a textile fabric of great
protective power.- ' " .
