O. W. tab. xi. fiff. 22. 



^ There is a possibility of these eggs being Red-throated Pipit's, but at that 

 time the Bunting was by far the commoner bird around the town.]

The nest, which was brought to me with these q^^a, had feathers in its 

 lining.]

[§ 2435. Six. — Naljas-vaara, South-western Finmark, 19 June, 

 1862. " With birds." 



Found by Piety and Turi Aslagsen, whom I caused to be sent to the 

 Norwegian mountains in search of Snowy Owls' and Skuas' eggs. They 

 brought also the skins of the birds.]

 REED-BUNTING. 

 § 2436. Five.— ^ot later than 1844. 



[Apparently from two nests. Mr. Wolley's notes are of some length, shewing 

 that he had become well acquainted with the habits of this species, of which 

 he had "frequently found the nest in the osier-beds at Eton," where these 

 eggs were very likely taken. 



\ 2437. Eleven. — Kaaressuando, 21 June, 1854. 



Two nests: found by boys there, and apparently Reed-Buntuigs' — 

 a common bird about the place. One nest has merely fine sheep- 

 grass for lining ; the other has also rein-hair.
