282 TURDUS ITLARIS. 



Theodore and Ludwig, wlio both were certain the bird was Bjork- 

 Trast, as they saw it well. The nest was at some height in a fir- 

 tree. It has more mud in its construction than a Redwing's, and is 

 lined with beautifully white grass, of course of last year's growth. 



Two of these eggs sold at Mr. Stevens's rooms, 17th February, 

 1854, to Mr. Salmon.

Four sold at Mr. Stevens's, 17th Feb., 1854, to Mr. Miluer.
