CAN SEE IN DAYLIGHT.

By New York Independent

NOCTURNAL creatures are generally supposed not to see well in the daylight, but facts collected are gradually dispelling the idea. It is well known that felines, which see well by night, seem to be able to see quite as well by day, and this is being found true of many other creatures. The bat sees admirably by daylight, as anyone can ascertain by threatening it with a twig. The owl, also, has first-rate day sight. Night-flying lepidoptera, when disturbed in their places of refuge during the day, have no difficulty in seeing at once where is the nearest and best place for a temporary refuge.—New York Independent.
