Drayton writes : — "The greedy sea-maw, fishing for the fry ; The hungry shell-fowl, from whose rape doth fly Th* unnumber'd sholes ; the mallard there did feed ; The teale and morecoot raking in the weed." (The Man in the Moon,) The Loon is described by Sir Thomas Broirne, as — ** a handsome and specious fowl, cristated, and with divided fin feet placed very backward, and after the manner of all such which the ^tch call arsvoote. They come about April, and breed in the broad ^'aten; so making ...their nest on the water, that their eggs are seldom dry widle they axe Bet on." (Vol. iv. p. 314.) Digitized byCjOOQlC 282 The Animal-Lore of Sliakspeare's Time.
The great crested grebe is probably here meant by the loon. When Macbeth exclaims to the terrified soldier— " The Devil damn thee black, thou cream-faced loon ! ** (Act V. 3, 11), ne probably used the word as a synonym for a coward, but the epithet " cream-faced" was well chosen, as the white cheeks of the grebe form a noticeable contrast to the darker portions of its head.
