Rebuilding
Rebuilding, 1871. 'By A Member Of The Rookery...Every year, after the winter storms, we have to renew our nests. At the very time we are carrying sticks to our lofty home, we are disturbed by the busy masons on the scaffolding. Both men and birds are at the same work, that of rebuilding. But, I say, why cannot men live in happy and peaceful communities, like us rooks? Ah! there goes a rascally compatriot with one of my twigs. May he be rook-pied! Alas! I am afraid there are villains in all societies. Caw! caw!' From "Illustrated London News", 1871. Creator: Pearson. (Photo by The Print Collector/Heritage Images via Getty Images)
