HYOID 



Hedge-SPARROW as they rapidly trip on the ground or along the 

 horizontal branches of fallen trees ; but unlike that bird they carry 

 the tail erect. Mr. Ramsay has described {Froc. Linn. Soc. N'. S. 

 JFales, ii. p. 109) their nest and eggs: the former has a dome, 

 and the latter, like those of so many Australian small birds, are 

 salmon-coloured with light chocolate-brown markings. The males 

 have an agreeable song.
