Prairie Warbler : Dendmica discolor. (See Fig. 181, p. ;) ««A,.) States; l„.„e,is from Hornl. to Mi,.Inf;an Massaehusetts; in soutlieii. Florida and West Indies. Hillside pastures and old, overgrown inni,)er fields, whose little evergreens give character to the landscape and afford cover qnite to the mind of Chewinks and Field Sparrows, prove also the bast places to look for the attractive little Prairie Warbler. It may be known by the dark marks on the side of its head and the recidish on Its back-points which can be .seen when the bird IS perched on a low bmnch. The song of the Prairie is one of the most rest- ful of bird songs. It is only a simple ascendino- scale, as far as note goes; but when listened to on a quiet juniper hillside, its delicious z-y nuality and the reposeful, leisurely way in which ea4' note of the upward scale falls on the ear, make it, to me, one of the choicest of all songs. N^ hint of the work-a-day hurry and toil is to be found Jicre; for a moment you step aside from the care- worn world procession and sto], to listen to the <pueting voice of Nature, to whom hurry and striving are 82o i m 'i ' il i:,.
