ARCHIBUTEO LAGOPUS. 135 



§ 393. Four. — Lehti-rowa, East Bothnia, 2 June, 1857. 



These four eggs found by Heiki, on the morning of 2nd June, in 

 an old Osprey's nest which he found about April this spring. He 

 does not know whether or not it was inhabited last year ; but it was 

 a very good nest on the top of a pine, some ten fathoms high. The 

 birds came crying round, and Heiki is certain they were the 

 common Piekonna. He distinctly saw that the cock was white over 

 the tail. He cut down a honka to help him to the branches. 



§ 394. Four. — Hutta-vaara, East Finmark, 2 June, 1857. From 

 Pastor Sommerfeldt's collection. 



O. W. tab. vi. fiff. 5. 



§ 395. Four. — Pieto-maski, Mukka-uoma, Enontekis Lappmark, 

 3 June, 1857. "L. M.K." 



Taken by Ludwig, on his journey to Pera-vaara, a couple of 

 Swedish mUes from Mukka-uoma, to the eastward. He could neither 

 snare nor shoot the bird. 



§ 396. Four. — Peldo-uoma, Kemi Lappmark, 4 June, 1857. 



This, with another nest of three eggs, was found by Erik Sardio 

 in one day, on his way to Peldo-uoma, and deposited there against my 

 arrival. They were taken to Muoniovara, 4th August, by Michael, 

 untouched in the basket, as I had left them ready blown in June. 



§ 397. Four. — Peldo-uoma, Kemi Lappmark, 1857. 



A fine nest. As the last, but found by Johan Yli-tallon. At 

 Peldo-uoma I declined to receive several nests of Piekonna. 



§ 398. Five. — Toipalen, Mukka-uoma, Tornea Lappmark, 

 6 June, 1857. "With feet." 



Brought to Ludwig, with the bird's feet, 7th June, by Jon Pehrs- 

 son Pilto. The nest was taken three-quarters of a mile to the north 

 of Mukka-uoma.
