Cardew's note book contained notes on sixty-five different birds, 

 and was illustrated by photographs of nests with eggs : the photo- 

 graphs being taken, where the nests were found, by Dr. Wilson. 

 Particularly worthy ot mention are the finding of the eggs of the 

 Cuckoo in three kinds of nests and the eggs of a Robin in an old 

 Swallow's nest. The manner in which the notes were jotted down 

 shew that Cardew is a keen observer of the habits of birds.
