[[Wheat?]] Killed Quail.

In foot of woodpecker, 4th outer toe has been greatly developed and turned back so that it has tended to supersede 1st toe in function. This toe when bird is climbing or holding does not point straight back but is usually thrown out at one side frequently at an angle of 45°. This gives greater stability & purchase to bird. At same time it lessens function & use of first toe so that this often does not touch surface or does not grasp. [[insertion]] 1st toe is also reduced in size to be finally lost in Tiga and Picoides [[/insertion]] Though 4th toe always points back it may [[in push?]] bird be twisted to level of two anterior toes. Sign of anisodactyl origin of zygodactyl foot.
