§ 1413. Two. — Muoniovaara, 3 June, 1854. 



From a nest occupied by a Siberian Titmouse found by Ludwig. 

 He saw the two birds fighting together. The Titmouse had the best 

 of it and sat singing ^' pist-tee-tee-tee.^' The Redstart's nest had been 

 built upon by the Titmouse, as shown by the difference in the lining. 

 The two Redstart's eggs were with the Titmouse's (seven) [§ 1068] . 

 It was in an old Woodpecker's hole, which I have since (15th Oct.) 

 seen, about six feet from the ground in a dead Scotch fir. 



^ 1414. 77/?w.— East Bothnia, 10 June, 1854. 



Apparently Redstart's; brought by Heiki and called Puna Rastas 

 [Red Thrush], his name for the bird. The nest is made of grass, 

 fine roots, a few feathers, and so forth. Many scores of eggs of this 

 bird have been brought. 



§ 1415. Fo/yr. — Keras Sieppi, Enontekis Lappmark, 13 June, 

 1855. 



Found by Heiki ; Ludwig saw and tried to shoot the bird, which 

 he is certain was of this species. He has this season seen and well 

 knows the Pied Flycatcher. 



§ 1416. 7'ico. — Muotka-jarwi-ranta, Enontekis Lappmark, 23 

 June, 1857. 



Brought by Maria, 15 July. Found in a stump. 



[These were said by the finder to be Sata-kielinen {^Cijanemla suecica), 

 which is in favour of their being Redstart's of some kind. Otherwise they 

 might be Pied Flycatcher's. I keep them on account of their peculiarly 

 rounded shape.] 



^ 1417. Five. — Mennumaa, East Bothnia, 5 June, 1858. 



Brought to Muoniovara, 12 June, by Heiki, having been found by 

 his boy and brother-in-law. 



§ 1418. Sicv — Kommexi Menniko, 1-5 June, 1858. 



Brought to Muoniovara, 14 June, by Muonioalusta's Lars, who 

 found them.
