Baucom, Assistant BIRD NOTES At the Bird Club meeting Saturday, Julian Boyce read an article about the Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher. He is scarcely larger than a house wren and is bine gray with a black tail bordered with white and browish black wings with blue gray border, underneath he is whitish gray. His nest is built of very frail material aad seems small even for as tiny a bird. It is firmly attached to two twigs usually near the end of a limb. The Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher, living as he does on small insects,! many of which breed in the water, | prefers to live near creeks and ponds | and to build his nest in Vow trees. | He and his mate often rear two broods a year. They seldom, if ever, alight on the ground awen to drink. When thirsty tlttey* sometimes sip the drops of dew from twigs and leaves and will spend half an hour catching gnats without stopping a moment to rest. Special guests at this meeting were Brenda Barrett, Daphne Paschall, of Norlina, and Janie Gay, of Bell Arthur. Gingerbread was served at the close of the meeting. 'it , i lOkail/044.
