PECULIAR BIRDS.
Our first sketch, a Lapwing, is a most curious looking bird, and is fullv •lescribed in a very interesting bool' by Mr. Pym-aft. entitled “History of
Birds." He has produced a work which fills <« distinct place in scientific literature, while at the same time meeting the popular demand for interesting information, with pictuies from life of Hirds. Our second sketch (v.lii.h, together with No. 1, is reproduced from a pho-
tograph from Ur. i’y.r.ft s " History ci Birds") shows a strange kind <>> bird known as the wert'kirr bird. This is also described in the volume.
