Our first illustration, representing a nest in a birch - tree, was obtained in an east Norfolk copse, and the second, showing the eggs, at Rains- worth Lodge, Nottinghamshire. The nest is placed in all sorts of trees, such as firs, elms, alders, hawthorns, and willows, at varying heights from the ground. Occasionally it has been met with even amongst heather stalks. J 2, 3 I C - 9A OUR RARER BRITISH BREEDING BIRDS. It is a pretty little structure, built with dry grass, stalks, moss, and rootlet...s on a foundation of slender twigs, and lined internally with willow down and sometimes hairs and feathers. The interior is deep, smooth, and beautifully shaped. The eggs, numbering from four to six, are of a very pale bluish-green ground colour, spotted with orange-red about the larger end, and sometimes streaked with dark brown. In addition they are also marked with an underlying colour of pale greyish-brown. The smaller size and black chin of the parent bird readily distinguish the nest from that of either the Twite or Linnet.
