The eggs of the Pine-Bunting are of a broad oval form and 
moderately glossy. They are pinkish cream-colour, profusely marked 
with dots, specks, streaks and fine lines of rich purplish-brown. On 
some specimens the lines are short and, as a rule, very fine; on 
others they are long, forming loops and knots and often encircling 
the egg. The underlying markings, which are faint and in- 
conspicuous, consist of small smears and spots of lilac-grey. The 
eggs measure from ‘78 to °87 in length, and from °6 to ‘68 in 
breadth.
