A Musical Woodpecker In the pursuit of my profession I hadoccasion for some time to travel over acertain road, along which is a telephoneline, the glass insulators of which areplaced on short pieces of hard wood whichare nailed directly to the post. Probably half a dozen times, when onthis road, I saw a male Downy Woodpeckerperched directly beneath the hard woodblock, pecking at it in a manner to makethe wire ring, then pausing and evidentlylistening to the music it had produced. When the vibration ceased the per-formance was repeated and continued atintervals until I was obliged to drive byand frighten the bird away.—Dr. D. L.Burnett, South Royaltoyi, Vt. An Ornitho
