"Yes, I'm going for a walk and if you want to you can come with me," answered her uncle So they started, Jane holding tight to her uncle's hand. As they walked along her uncle told lier that he was very anxious to find a certain kind of bird and wished very much to find the hird's nest. He told her it was qujte easy to find the bird as it made a funny noise when it flew but that it was a very sly bird in keeping its nest a secret. But he thought, perhaps, if they both looked very hard they could find it. This made Jane feel very happy-that she couldhelp her unciv; and she began to look on both sides of road. Her uncle had told . her a great many things about all Kinds of ani- mals and especially about birds. All at once her uncle stopped to listen atid said: "There it is, Jane, do you hear it? Look on that limb and see the bird with the yellow feath ered cap. That is the one I was looking for." - Jane looked where her uncle point- ed and there was one of the prettiest birds she had ever seen, but as they could not seem to find it, though they looked hard and poked in the bu s with sticks. At last Jane's uncle said he was sure they could not find the nest and he was| going to give it up for that day. But! Jane said more and a tree while Jane went off to hunt| some more. { but Very slowly she walked alonge! picking flowers, but still looking for] the nest. All at once she saw the bird close beside her, first hopping| i on somie low .branches and then down to the ground "I am sure the nest! is near here," thought Jane, and she bégan to poke, among the with a stick. There close beside her was the nest with four eggs in it These were the prettiest eggs Jane |B 'white, | Ji had ever seen," all creamy spotted with brown and pals Taven- der. | Jane called to her uncle and he| came to look at the nest.
