SHORT-LIVED FREEDOM.—Brother Sullivan, of St. Leo's Christian Brothers’ College, Wahroonga, Sydney, securing Nina, a 10-months-old wedgetau eagle, after she had arrived in the backyard of the college. The pet, belonging to Mr J. Hayne, an American salesman, of Wahroonga, had escaped after chewing through a thick nylon parachute rope. Mr Hayne, who was an amateur falconer in California, found Nina near Dubbo, New South Wales. “I’m teaching her to fly and come back of her own accord,” he said, “but she must have wanted to try it out without my presence.”
