BIRD CLUB NOTES Tommie Bennett, a pew. member of the Bird club, read an'article about the kittiwake gt the meeting Satur day morning. Eighteen inches long, its head, neck, undnparta and tail are pure white. The eyelids are red and the hjpd toe 1b absent. One of the interesting characteris tic trtits which this bird has is pur suing its prey by hovering over the water and plunging head foremost into the Bea with much dash and vi gor. These gulls are often seen fol lowing whales, apparently pa get fragments of fish rejected or dropped by them. Observers say they seem to know when the whale most rise to breathe. Although it feeds mainly on fish, the kittiwake can eat other animal or refuse matter. For drinking this gull prefers salt water and is often observed sleeping peacefully on great osean rollers, with it* head tucked under wing?-literally "rocked on the cradle of the deep." A great wanderer and decidedly democratic iff disposition, the kitti wake is often found in the company of other gulls- and sea birds. ~~ The nest is built on a rocky ledge overlooking water and is made of grass and seaweed. _ were Mrs. W.
