Six days appears to be the limit of time a redstart baby can submit to a cradle. When mamma came, he asked for food in the usual bird-baby way, gentle flutters of the wings; but this haste was certainly not pleasing to the little dame, and upon her departure I noticed that he had returned to the nursery.
Properly done the effect is a marvel and a joy forever, like lace over sunshine, like some fairy creation too dainty for words to picture. The bird-baby world was not bounded by any pasture, however enchanting, and I have not told all the charms of this one.
A farm wagon happened to stand near the dead tree, and on this the young woodpecker alighted, and stood humped up and quiet while his parent went to the berries, picked several for himself, and then proceeded to feed him. This young person was very circumspect in his behavior. He did not flutter nor cry, in the usual bird-baby manner, but received his food with perfect composure.
The combination of black and gray was very effective, and closer acquaintance did not modify my first opinion of the little stranger; he was a bonny bird with clear, open gaze, graceful in every movement, and innocent and sweet in life I was sure, and am still, in spite of But let me tell my story: While I was noting these things I heard the cries of a bird-baby behind me.
