Text Appearing Before Image:
, lafacilité de se reposer sur leau, au moyen de leurs pieds entièrement pal-més, et dy passer la nuit, quand ils sont trop éloignés de terre, fait dontje me suis assuré dans mes voyages en Amérique ; souvent à cette époqueils voltigent à la cime des mâts et se reposent sur les vergues. Ayant lesjambes courtes et placées presquà larrière du corps, ils ont une dé-marche pesante et sont aussi gênés dans leurs mouvemens, quils sontlestes et agiles dans leur vol ; aussi se posent-ils rarement à terre.
