He survived the winter, and in the ensuing spring, the lady-bird ! lady-bird ! was still the burden of our evening song ; it then ceased, and we never heard this pretty modulation more. Though merely an occasional strain, yet I have no- ticed it elsewhere ; it thus appearing to be a favour- ite utterance. "* * Journal of a Naturalist, p. 271, 3d ed. SONGS. 195 We have ourselves, in many instances, observed what might be not inappropriately called a different dialect among the same species of so...ng-birds in different counties, and even in places a lew miles distant from each other. This difference is more readily remarked in the chaffinch, dunnock, and yellow-hammer, than in the more melodious species. The chaffinches, for example, in Normandy, we ob- served to vary from those of Scotland by several notes ; and among the yellow-hammers in Ireland, England, and Holland, we detected similar differen- ces. We once heard a dunnock (Accentor modula- ris) in a garden at Blackheath sing so many addi- tional notes to its common song, that we concluded it was of a different species, till we ascertained, by watching the little musician, that it was not other- wise distinguished from its less accomplished breth- ren.
