l How scientists on an’ expedition
fraught 'with peril braved the in-
termost recesses of unexplored
Florida cypress swamps and discov-
ercd rare birds with ivory bills was
described by Professor A. A. Allen.
Cornell University naturalist, who
has just returned from four months
of thrilling adventures in the far
Southern wilderness.
After a month's fatiguing search
in a. large. dense. Florida. swamp
the naturalists made a discovery of
supreme importance to the scienti-
fic world when they suddenly found
themselves confronted with a col-
ony of ivory-billed woodpeckers. a.
species hitherto presumed to have
been, extinct. Professor Allen suc-
ceeded in obtaining several photo-
graphs and motion pictures of the
woodpeckers. with their valuable
bills: but further observations were
checked when taxidermist: attract-
ed to the scene by the discovery
shot the entire flock.
While making its way to a Texas
lagoon. near Corpus Christi. the ex-
pedition came upon a flock of
whooping cranes. also thought for
many years to be extinct. The Core
nell scientists succeeded in ap-
proaching closer to these birds than
had probably ever been done before
by a human being and _ obtained
some valuable motion pictures of
them.
The whooping crane is a larger
bird than the sand crane. standing
about five feet high. and with clear
white feathers.

BIRDS WITH won BILLS FOUND . '
. [BY .EXPEDfllON lNl‘O FLORIDA
s
The expedition also , obtained
specimens and pictures 0f many
other tropical birds which are on
the verge of extremination. among
them the sand-billed crane and the
swallow-tailed kite. a large white
hawk. practically extinct; seven
rare species of heron. including the
snowy and the American egret.
During the expedition 7.000 photo-
graphs and about 1.800 feet of mo-
tion pictures were taken, depicting
bird life in its various phases. Pro-
fessor Allen will display the'se in
public lectures next Fall and will
also prepare slides for classroom
use. .
' ,, The Cornell expedition encounter-
ed many difficulties and dangers in
both Florida and Texas. Professor
Allen was accompanied by Mrs. Al~
ion and J. T. Llyod. s former Cor-
nell instructor, and while searching
for Mexican fauna. in Southern
Texas. the party crossed the bay
from Galveston in a launch. Due to
a sudden weather change the party
was marrOOned for four days. with
only seven sandwiches and two
quarts of fresh water.
Intending to spend but one night
on the Wild mainland. the bird
hunters were surprised by a Wintry
storm. which swept the water out
of the bay and left the lauch high
and dry :00 yards from the water
line.
Though their situation was not
desperate they were forced to live

are small rodents about the size of

The, stimulating effect of the Guin

was further demonstrated by a pair
of prehenslle tailed porcupines
which sunived the voyage in good
