CAROLINA FEATHERS THE MOCKINGBIRD Moonl MORE true species of birds have been made known to science from South Carolina than from any other commonwealth of the United States! This is a fact which speaks volumes for the history of ornithology in Carolina and America. Carolina is rich in history. The part which she played in the making of the nation is an enviable one and no less interesting to many is her position of record achievement in the field of natural history. Her claim to prominence therein would be warranted by the one fact mentioned above alone, but there are other phases to be considered also. In the early days, what was known as the Province of Carolina composed that area south of Virginia to Florida, in other words, what is now known as North and South Carolina, and Georgia. The great bulk of work done by pioneer ornithologists was, for obvious reasons, accomplished along the coast region. It was many years before WHERE THE AVIAN LEGIONS ARE THICKEST BY ALEXANDER SPRUNT, JR. the interior was penetrated to any distance. Even before the ornithologists came, in the days when the Spaniards attempted colonization at the mouth of the Santee River in 1521 and later, those militaristic adventurers noted the abundance of bird life in reports of the expeditions. With the coming of the English, and the permanent settlement of the Carolinas, William Hilton, writing in 1664, says that the country "abounds with Turkeys, Quails, Curleues, Plovers, Teile, Herons; and the Indians say in winter with Swans, Geese, Cranes, Duck and Mallard, and inumerable of other water-fowls, whose name we know not." It was Hilton who noted flocks of "Par- rakeetos," the birds which were later known as Carolina paroquets and which have lately become extinct. Hilton, however, was not an ornithologist. The first scientific attempt published in early times was Mark Catesby's Natural History of Carolina, Florida and the Bahama Islands, published in 1731-43. Catesby figured, OTTILIE KEIL ight nights fairly drip with his sweet song L. W.

Several articles on the Carolinas appear in this 1931 issue of Nature Magazine. The magazine was collected by George Masa. Born Masahara Iizuka and raised in Japan, George Masa (1881-1933) emigrated to the U.S. when he was 20 years old and, in 1915, came to Asheville, where he lived the rest of his life. Masa was active in the Appalachian Trail Club and in the movement to establish the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
