a glass^ and saw the red under the wing. The nest was supported by 

 Azalea [Ledmn palustre] twigs under a birch-tree^ perhaps a foot from 

 the ground. At the commencement of Jeris-joki, about midnight. 

 There were five eggs, with young inside. 



§ 1318. 77/;-^^.— Muoniovaara, 20 June, 1855. " L. M. K." 



Josa found this nest in his father's fence, on a tuft near the ground. 

 Ludwig went to the place and took the eggs, having first, he says, 

 seen the bird perfectly. 



§ 1319. Fof/r. — Muoniovaara, June 1855. 



Taken by Ludwig from a nest found by Josa. It was about a 

 foot from the ground, among some birch-shoots, and like a Redwing's. 

 Tlie bird Ludwig did not see ; he believes it had been killed by a 

 Hawk. 



[These eggs are very large, but the evidence in favour of their being Red- 

 wing's and not Fieldfare's seems to me so strong that I do not hesitate to 

 ascribe them, as did Mr. Wolley, to the former.] 



§ 1320. Four. — Muoniovaara, 11 July, 1855. 



Found by Ludwig's sister to the south of the summer cow-house. 

 The nest on the ground or nearly so, among some birch-shoots. It 

 is now before me, and an evident Redwing's. 



§ 1321. 7^o//r.— Muoniovaara, 1855. "L. M. K." 



The nest was found by Josa, on the ground between two tree-roots 

 near the other house at Muoniovara. The bird well seen by Ludwig. 



§ 1322. Ojie. — Pyha-ota, South-western Finmark, 1855. 



Obtained on our way from Norway into Sweden. 



[Nothing more has been recorded of this specimen ; it was most likely kept 

 by Mr. Wolley, as being from the most northern locality (about 69° 15' N. lat.) 

 whence he had obtained the egg of this species.] 



^ 1323. Five.— Muoniovaara, 19 June, 1856. "A. K." 



Found by Anton a little way to the south of Herr Forsstrom's 

 fence. He saw the bird, which he knows well. The eggs were a good 

 deal sat upon. The nest is small.
