Eggs of the Red-headed Bunting closely resemble those of 
E. melanocephala. They are of a broad oval shape and have a con- 
siderable amount of gloss. The ground-colour is very faint bluish- 
white, minutely speckled or spotted all over with umber-brown and 
underlying lilac-grey, the markings in some specimens forming an 
irregular wreath round the broad end. They measure from -78 to 
-90 in length, and from °57 to °65 in breadth,
