Cudworth held his hand to me in the moonlight, and I could see the scars. It looked as if it had been mangled by a dog. "Weren't you afraid?" I asked. "I was. Seven years I waited. You know, it takes that long for the disease to incubate. Here in Kona I waited, and it did not come.
Those pigeons who elect to incubate on the ground discard even the rude platform of twigs, which generally represents the nest of those who prefer bushes and trees, but gradually encircle themselves with tiny mounds of ejected seeds, until the appearance of a nest is presented.
He rends the earth as if it were old linen, and clothes in silvery snow the naked tops of mountains. "In a grain of wheat He hides one hundred other grains, and causes birds to incubate. From the drowsy chrysalis He leads to life a golden butterfly, and makes men's bodies wait in tombs until the day of resurrection."
Don't forget I'm her father." Bud laughed through the flush that rose in his cheeks. "No, I won't forget that. But have you decided what to tell Peabody and Stevens as your plan of action if they come in here at 12:30?" "If they come?" exclaimed Langdon. "They'll come. Watch 'em." Then he hesitated, worriedly. "I'll have to incubate an idea between now and noon, somehow.
Then the body adapted to them and they began to incubate slowly, developing into the large cells he had first seen. When "ripe", the big cells broke apart into millions of the tiny round ones that went back to the nerve endings, causing the black spots and killing the host. He knew his enemy now, at least. He reached for the controls, increasing the magnification.
Mention has been omitted or forgotten by the worthy Dame, in her vagrant fowl's treatment of a story she cannot incubate, will not relinquish, and may ultimately addle, that the bridegroom, after walking with a disengaged arm from the little village church at Croridge to his coach and four at the cross of the roads to Lekkatts and the lowland, abruptly, and as one pursuing a deferential line of conduct he had prescribed to himself, asked his bride, what seat she would prefer.
It's that damned incubator that's letting us down all the time. The rotten thing won't work. I don't know what's the matter with it. The long and the short of it is that it simply declines to incubate." "Perhaps it's your dodge of letting down the temperature. You remember, you were telling me? I forget the details." "My dear old boy," he said earnestly, "there's nothing wrong with my figures.
As to living out of doors, the old open-sided hay barn on the pasture side of the knoll, that you have not decided whether to rebuild or tear down, will make an excellent camp. Aside from the roof, it is as open as a hawk's nest. Don't hurry your decision; incubate the idea over Sunday, Madam Penrose, and I'll warrant by Monday you will have hatched a really tangible plan, if not a brood of them.
They nest and incubate upon the ground, and show not the slightest fear of the approach of human visitors. In one rookery there were many varieties of these oceanic birds, and a species of booby that seems to be peculiar to Christmas Island. In size and colour they much resemble the ordinary gannet of our cold northern seas.
Gharials, for example, often court each other by making a loud buzzing sound. Mating occurs under water with the male mounted on top of the female. The average gestation period is between 35-60 days. The gestation for a Mugger is 35-40 days and for Gharials and Salties, 40-65 days. Crocodiles will either dig a hole about 30 cms deep or pile up leaves to incubate their eggs.
