As the cold and snow deplete the supply of food in the woods, the confidence of the nuthatches and chickadees especially seems to be in- creased, and many of us have so enjoyed the fearlessness with which they perch on head or shoulder, and take food from our hands, that it seems the fault of man himself that these gentle ones scatter at his ap- proach.
