EAGLES OF SCOTLAND. Where They Build Their Neat, and How They Feed Their Yonns. A writer who has studied the habits of eagles among the Scottish hills says that the birds construct their eyries toward the end of March and the eggs, which number two or three, are laid in April. Eagles seem to prefer for a nesting site some ancient pine with a southern position and wide outlook or a ledge on a cliff, but this writer noticed that they sometimes build their ' eyries on quite small rocks, where they can lie got at without much difficulty, while all around are immense precipices where man’s foot has never trod. It has been said that the eagle will fearlessly attack any one attempting to rob its eggs and young, but this is probably much less often the case than is generally supposed. When one of a pair of eagles is trapped or shot the remaining bird has often great difficulty in finding a mate and may haunt its nesting site for several years by itseif. While soaring round and round their eyrie the eagles utter a musical note somewhat similar to the cry of the wild goose. Young eagles when first hatebed are white balls of down, and many weeks elapse before they are able to leave the eyrie. Their parents supply them with a very liberal larder, consisting principally of ptarmigan, grouse and blue hares. The rush of their wings as they swoop down on their luckless prey may on a still day be heard at a great distance. Eagles at times will carry off lambs and young deer and have been known to drive deer over a precipice and to tear them to bits while lying lifeless at the foot. Sometimes they will even condescend to bear off moles and mice to their eyrie. Although the eagle, as a rule, prefers to capture bis prey himself, yet at times he is not above feeding on the dead carcass of a deer or sheep and often gorges himself to such an extent that be is unabie to rise after his too hearty meal. In most localities of Scotland where the eagle has its home there will also be found the hoodie crow. The eagle will seldom if ever attack the hoodie, but whenever the king of birds ventures too near the former’s nesting tree the angry hoodies will immediately drive off the intruder. It is laughable to see the eagle flying for dear life before the fierce onslaughts of the enraged crows, which swoop and dash after him with shrill “cruas” until be is far from their nesting site.
