(IKOM a IMIOTOOKAI'M I KOM ) " (iit out, you quinine brute! You're only fit for a |)rescrip- tion !" Yet, for all his astrinijency, we love to see the sa,ije-hen on the sul- try march, burstinjj^ out from the bracken, startinjj; the jackass-rabbit from its form, and awakeninjr the landscape with his free flij^ht. Tile dusky j^rrousc; is found in the Rocky Mountains and the various spurs of hiy^hlands that are connected therewith. It is a marvelously ijraceful bird, often quite black, or blue-black, and flecked here antl there with little pencilinijs of white f(.athers, lookini; as thous^h crystals of new snow had fallen u|)on it. These seem to be the tips of white feathers just cominj^r to the surface of the black. .Somc:times the bird is dusky, or of a dark slate color, marked with white, and always bearincj^ that distintjuishini^ mark of the *frouse faiTiiiv,âthe britrht-colored streak over tin- eye,âwhich, in this bird, is scarlet. Its tail is rounded, anil ornamented with the band of a darker hue that most of th«' irrouse family possess. It has th(,' jrular sac on the side of tlie neck, and its cry in the s|)rin}.j-time is like the blowinj^f several times suddenly into an empty bottle. .'I ! / *â â !.
