111 the Road Aviary Blue Tanag-ers and Silver-eared 

 Mesias iiave each had three clutches of eg-gs, but all the eyi^'s 

 were infertile. J^otli pairs were nesting again and hope had 

 taken a new lease of life. Saffron Finches were incubating. 

 In the Rockery Aviary Olive and Zebra Finches have young 

 on the wing, but not yet fending for themselves. Maskt'd 

 Grassfinches have young in the nest which were doing well. 

 and Orange -cheeked Waxbills were nesting. There were a 

 fair number of nests high up of which Mr. Freeland knew 

 nothing. 



The above notice in most inadequate, but my desire is 

 that owners should give descriptions of their aviaries and 

 birds. jSir. Freeland said that up to the present only Canaries 

 and Cutthroats had reared young up to the point of fending 

 for themselves, but that there were many other pros])ects of 

 success in other directions. 



L.M.T. CRirrrEs' Hospital and College .4viAniEs: 

 These aviaries have now develo[ed and are now looking quite 

 spectaculai', the Finch aviary in particular looks charming with 

 the internal standards wreathed with Dorothy Perkins and 

 other Rambler Roses, the door arches covered with clematis, 

 ivy, and honeysuckle, while the evergi-eens, privet hedge, 

 etc., have all done well and the result is very picturesque. In 

 opposite corners brambles thrive and are now producing fruit. 

 The occupants of the aviary are thriving also, and two rather 

 interesting successes are worth recording-.
