On seeing these Heron's eggs so long untended they began to take a keen interest in them, wondering if in truth they were deserted. At first they just flew quickly over, one following the other at a distance, each as it passed turning its evil head to stare greedily at the pale blue eggs lying in the nest. Gradually they became bolder, flying together and more slowly. Little by little they poised in their flight and seemed about to alight, but as often courage failed them, and they flapped on, ...low over the trees. Then they tried to exhort each other, flying boldly up and cawing loudly, scolding each other when they passed ; but it was no use, they dared not take the final step. Often they got as far as to drop their legs preparatory to alighting, and as often at the last moment thought better of it, and with desperate flapping managed to resume flight. THE COMMON HERON. 31 When this first began I felt certain that my birds would come hurrying back to wreak vengeance on these sombre egg-thieves, but, if they saw them, they paid no heed.
