THE FISH HAWK.

The fish hawk, or osprey, is not as large as the eagle, but he

has a hooked bill and sharp-claws like the eagle. He is dark

brown in colour with black and white spots, and he is twen-

ty to twenty-two inches long. His breast is mostly white. His

tail and wings are long. The fish hawk is often found sitting

upon a tree over a pond, lake, or river. He is also found

by the seaside. He watches the fish as they swim in the

water beneath him, and then he darts down suddenly and

catches one of them. When he catches a fish in his sharp,

rough claws, he carries it off to eat, and, as he flies away

with it for his dinner, an eagle sometimes meets him. The

eagle flies at him fiercely with his sharp bill, claws and

compels the hawk to drop the fish. Then the eagle catches

the fish as it falls and carries it off. The poor fish hawk, with

a loud cry, timidly flies away. He must go again to the water

and catch another fish for his dinner. So you see that the

eagle is a robber. He robs fish hawks, whose only mode of

getting a living is by catching fish. Why does the fish hawk let the eagle take its fish?
