N REFERRING to your biography of the famous hornbills, residing in the forests of Asia and Africa, you will see they were an im- portant part of the bird life there. The toucans held a like position in the lovely, wild, wooded places of Central and South America. Most nature lovers must be satis- filed with pictures of these brilliantly colored tropical creatures. Some of us may see them in zoological gar- dens, but all of us are interested in reading interviews or biographies of these strange birds. 5 The toucans have the same unbe- lievably long beaks as the hornbills. They also live in the trees and have | the same habit of leaping heavily from | bough to bough. Their food consists of seeds, fruit and insects. You can tell the toucan from the hornbill by the absence of the horny helmet above the beak. And the tou- cans are far more brilliantly colored. blowpipe goes into the forests for & few toucans for dinner. In June and July the birds are plentiful and fat, and the meat is tender and sweet. After these months they become shy and wary—not un- usual after such intensive hunting. The smaller members of the toucan tribe are very sociable at meal time, but when the repast is over, they scatter. They are a noisy’lot. ‘I'ney sit close together to exchange tne news of the day, felicitating eacn cther by clacking their huge beaks together and shouting loudly. When dozens of these great horns are com- ing together, there is a din. Always there is a sentinel stationed in the offing, ready to send the alarm. ‘When he adds his ear-splitting yell, | you can hear the “song fest” a mile. You should see a toucan at rest. He stretches his long neck its full length, resting his cumbersome beak on & nearby limb, or thrusting 1t downward to peep about, to see If any danger is at hand. This beak is used to gather great quantities of berries or fruit—a sort of hand—and though it looks ponderous and heavy, and certainly is cumbersome, it is really very light in weight. At Dbedtime the toucan makes elaborate preparations for tne nignt. The beak is thrust among the soit feathers of the back. The tal moves up and is dropped upon the back.

She told them all about Reddy Fox, Shadow the ‘Weasel, Yowler the Bobcat and all the other hunters who do not fly. Then she told them all about the members of the Hawk family. who hunt by day, and the members of the Owl family, who hunt by night. “As long as you keep off the ground and do not go too near it you have little to fear from the hunters who wear fur.
