BLESSED QUENTY-QUEE: The little birds in the nest in the vines on the garden fence are nearly grown up. Their mother still feeds them. You see the mother bird with a worm in her beak, and the little birds with their beaks wide open! I was out walking the other day and passed the Zoo; there I fed with grass some of the two-year-old elk; the bucks had their horns "in the velvet." I fed them through the bars.
