Nesting Habits of Booted Eagle 181 
I first made the acquaintance of the Booted Eagle in May 1875 
when I found a pair nesting in a very tall ivy-covered oak in the 
EGG OF BOOTED EAGLE. oIze 2s x 1°7 1n 
Cork Woods near Gibraltar and the successors of this pair still 
nest in an almost similar tree only a few hundred yards from the 
site of the first one which was cut down many years ago.
