. A popular handbook of the birds of Canada and the United States [microform]. Oiseaux; Birds. 380 SWIMMERS.. appearance is geiienlly hailed by mariners as an indication the approach of land. Yet numbers are not wanting arou the remotest ajtd most sequestered islands in the midst of t wide ocean. There they live in companies, associated w Gulls, Tropic Birds, and their tynnnical persecutor, the Friga who, appreciating their assistance as providers, dwells and rei in the same retreats. Among the Frigates, some (probably the males after incut tion) live in societies apart from the rest, dispersed to situatio most suitable for obtaining pillage. Boobies utter a loud cry, something in sound betwixt th of the Raven and the Goose; and this quailing is heard mo particularly when they are pursued by the Frigate, or whe assembled together, they happen to be seized by any sudd( panic. As they can only begin the motion of their wings 1 starting from some lofty station, they usually perch like Corm rants, and in flying stretch out the neck and display the toil. According to Dampier, in the Isle of Aves these birds bre< on trees, though in other places they nestle on the ground, ar always associate in numbers in the same place. They lay oi or two eggs, and the young continue for a long time coven for the most part with a ver}- soft and white down. The flei is black and unsavory, yet sailors frequently make a meal i it. In summer they are not uncommon on the coasts of tl Southern States. The Booby is chiefly restricted to the tropical or sub-tropic seas, but an occasional example wanders as far norih as off tl coast of Georgia. Note. — The Blue-faced Booby {SuM cyanops) and the Rei FOOTED Boobv (Sula piicafor) occasionally straggle north to th Florida waters; and the Anhinga (An/iinga anhmgd), also a tro| ical bird, has been taken ofE North Carolina and on the Mississipj River..
