are pale olive- or greyish-green, somewhat sparingly spotted and 
blotched with dark olive-brown, and rather profusely marked in 
various ways with pale purplish shell-markings. In the second

ochraceous in colour. In addition to these markings, there are on 
most eggs of the Hawfinch numerous lines and scrolls fantastically 
drawn about the larger end of the egg, and occasionally forming a 
wreath round that point. They vary greatly in size, the smallest 
specimen in the series measuring ‘8 by °61, and the Jargest 1:03
