A nest was taken by Cherrie at Sta. Barbara on the 4th of September. The 

 female was taken on the nest (skin No. 11150). The nest is hanging on a forked 

 twig, in the way that an Oriole's nest hangs. It is a rather thin-walled structure, 

 not more than 9 by 6 cm. across. It was placed in a small, six-feet-high tree 

 in a dark, dense forest near the river, and contained two fresh eggs. The eggs 

 are short ovate, glossy white with frequent red-brown spots. They measure 21 by 

 16 and 205 by 16 ram.
