Hemade a chirpy sound like bill was a bright red. We enclose a photograph ofbim, which we took of himthrough the The Brown Creeper BY EARLE STAFFORD (Aged 14 years) Cloaked in brown is he, That mite on yonder tree— His cheerful cry, as he climbs on high. Comes from the pines to me. Not once in his busy course stops he. To talk with Nuthatch or Chickadee, But continues his searching midst wind and snow, Till the sharp cold days of winter go; Then back to the northland—back to his home— To the range of the bears, where the caribou roam; And there with his mate—the one he loves best— JBehind some strip of bark theyll build them a nest. Hell help feed the young birds and keep away thieves. Till the rich gold of fall comes and warm summer leaves. (197)
