Few in the woods and fewer on the windy downs, here birds were abundant, not only on the building, where they were likeseafowl congregated on a precipitous rock, but they were all about me. The level green was the hunting ground of many thrushes--a dozen ortwenty could often be seen at one time--and it was easy to spot thosethat had young. The worm they dragged out was not devoured; another waslooked for, then another; then all were cut up in proper lengths andbeaten and bruised, and finally pa...cked into a bundle and carried off. Rooks, too, were there, breeding on the cathedral elms, and had no timeand spirit to wrangle, but could only caw-caw distressfully at the wind, which tossed them hither and thither in the air and lashed the talltrees, threatening at each fresh gust to blow their nests topieces. Small birds of half a dozen kinds were also there, and onetinkle-tinkled his spring song quite merrily in spite of the cold thatkept the others silent and made me blue. One day I spied a big queenbumble-bee on the ground, looking extremely conspicuous in its black andchestnut coat on the fresh green sward; and thinking it numbed by thecold I picked it up.
