This
will
be
a
good
opportunity
to
taste
jacamar
,
"
replied
the
sailor
,
"
if
that
fellow
is
in
a
humor
to
be
roasted
!
"
Just
then
,
a
stone
cleverly
thrown
by
the
boy
,
struck
the
creature
on
the
wing
,
but
the
blow
did
not
disable
it
,
and
the
jacamar
ran
off
and
disappeared
in
an
instant
.
"
How
clumsy
I
am
!
"
cried
Herbert
.
"
No
,
no
,
my
boy
!
"
replied
the
sailor
.
"
The
blow
was
well
aimed
;
many
a
one
would
have
missed
it
altogether
!
Come
,
do
n't
be
vexed
with
yourself
.
We
shall
catch
it
another
day
!
"
As
the
hunters
advanced
,
the
trees
were
found
to
be
more
scattered
,
many
being
magnificent
,
but
none
bore
eatable
fruit
.
Pencroft
searched
in
vain
for
some
of
those
precious
palm-trees
which
are
employed
in
so
many
ways
in
domestic
life
,
and
which
have
been
found
as
far
as
the
fortieth
parallel
in
the
Northern
Hemisphere
,
and
to
the
thirty-fifth
only
in
the
Southern
Hemisphere
.
But
this
forest
was
only
composed
of
coniferae
,
such
as
deodaras
,
already
recognized
by
Herbert
,
and
Douglas
pine
,
similar
to
those
which
grow
on
the
northwest
coast
of
America
,
and
splendid
firs
,
measuring
a
hundred
and
fifty
feet
in
height
.
At
this
moment
a
flock
of
birds
,
of
a
small
size
and
pretty
plumage
,
with
long
glancing
tails
,
dispersed
themselves
among
the
branches
strewing
their
feathers
,
which
covered
the
ground
as
with
fine
down
.
Herbert
picked
up
a
few
of
these
feathers
,
and
after
having
examined
them
,
--
"
These
are
couroucous
,
"
said
he
.
"
I
should
prefer
a
moor-cock
or
guinea-fowl
,
"
replied
Pencroft
,
"
still
,
if
they
are
good
to
eat
--
"
"
They
are
good
to
eat
,
and
also
their
flesh
is
very
delicate
,
"
replied
Herbert
.
"
Besides
,
if
I
do
n't
mistake
,
it
is
easy
to
approach
and
kill
them
with
a
stick
.
