Interlude
2.5 Round the Countryside
' Sea birds '
C. C. GADDUM
In his last talk of the term Mr. Gaddum is to speak about sea birds, as many of his listeners will be going to the seaside for their holidays. He will describe the life of the common herring gull, and will speak about his experiences on an island that was colonised by these birds. Then he will talk about the sea-swallow or tern, most graceful of sea birds, although very pugnacious when disturbed while nesting ; finally, he will discuss that curious, sinister-looking bird, the cormorant.
