It is an easy, noiseless, and yet assiduous chase ; noth- ing interrupts them, unless it be that a curious observer comes too near them, or something unusual happens. Then they stand still ; one leg is drawn up close to the body and lays hold of the other, thus to give greater firmness to the contemplative position ; the neck is stretched inquiringly upward, and the eye is fixed on the object of alarm.
