Good News, v. 15, no. 372, June 19, 1897 (Issue) |
| Date: |
June 19, 1897 |
| Edition Description: |
Part of the "For Students of Natural History" department. |
| First Sentence: |
Thanks to story books most children grow up to believe that birds sleep with their heads under their wings. |
| Last Sentence: |
Most birds turn their heads round and lay them along their backs, nestling them well down into their feathers so that they are almost, if not quite, concealed; and unobservant people seeing at a distance the birds in this position, and merely relying on one or the other rhyming fallacy, conclude that their heads are tucked away beneath the wings. |
