It is true that the long beak is plunged into the chalice of the flower, as into a SUN-BIRDS. 135 goblet of honey ; but the bird pecks out the insects found therein, and banquets on them as well as on the juices of the flower. Sometimes, indeed, the Sun-Bird is seen clambering about the leaves and branches of the dwarf trees and the brushwood. There no honey can be found, and the sole object of the search is for insects. As the bird passes from flower to flower, it utters a shrill, impatient cr...y. But when it is warbling to its mate, its note will be sweet and pleasant. But it is so low, that unless you stood under the tree where the bird was perching, you could not hear its song. The Sun-Bird makes her nest of the down of plants mixed with a few dead leaves, and the outside wall is all of moss. It looks, when it is finished, like a little ball, rather pointed at the bottom ; and the bird makes a cover for it, like a hood, that hides the hole where she enters, and prevents it being seen.
