With the nest, lined with willow- down and having shreds of inner 

 bark outside. Found by Ludwig some six feet up in a willow-tree 

 close to his father^s house, sometime between the 10th and 20th of 

 July. There were three fresh eggs in the nest. Ludwig found on 

 the Russian side another nest with five eggs nearly hatching, and a 

 third with young birds ready to fly, all within a few days.

[Not entered in his book by Mr. Wolley.] 



§ 2205. Fom-.—Ysidso, East Finmark, 1855. 



These look like Mealy Redpoll's, as does the nest, which is made 

 of sticks, bark-bands looking like silver-paper, stringy lichen, and so 

 forth. It is lined with feathers and cotton-wool ! 



^ 2206. One. — Varanger Fjord, East Finmark, 1855. 

 From a nest of four, brought by a boy. 



§ 2207. Tico.—Yaranger Fjord, 3 July, 1855. 



Found by a Lapp girl in a district where Mr. Newton and I had 

 often examined the birds, of which we saw several pairs the evening 

 the nest was found. We met with nothing but the Mealy Redpoll 

 of British authors.
