Nature Photography If anyone wants aid in the identification of

birds let him go to the exhibit of natural history photographs opened at the South Kensington Museum on Wednesday and to remain open till the end, of November. Not only are the photographs both from home and overseas of extreme artistic beauty ; they also contribute to the science of the subject. Vexed problems concerning the woodcock and the cuckoo are both illustrated. Natural history is well served in London this autumn. In an exhibition fathered by the R.H.S. the artists do almost as well by the flowers as the photographers by bird and beast. * * * *
