one finds old nests there will then be new. Risti-nokka [Crossbill] 

 is also in Sadio, but he never could find its nest.

Brought by Mikel Sadio with the others, the bird carefully placed 

 with each nest. This uest is entirely made of fine trailing branches 

 or runners, principally of LinncBa borealis, and lined with tree-hair.

One of Mikel's nests (as above). This of runners with the bedding 

 principally of grass and one or two bits of black tree-hair.

This nest, mostly of sheep-grass, is another found by the Sadio 

 lads, and one of those on which the bird was snared.

The nest like the rest, but with rather more tree-hair and les? 

 grass.

One of these eggs is a remarkably light variety. The nest is quite 

 characteristic.

One of MikeFs nests ; entirely lined with grass, outside more root- 

 fibres than usual. The bird is a hen, and lies before me, having been 

 carefully kept with the nest and eggs since they were brought to 

 Ludwig on the 29th June.
