in Great Britain during the Nesting-season. 21 
taken in Suffolk ; and Messrs. Sheppard and Whitear speak of a 
nest found in a garden at Ormsby, in Norfolk. Mr. Alfred 
Newton tells me that the eggs in Mr. Scales’s collection, which 
were thought to have been taken in Norfolk, were really pro- 
cured from Holland.

scarcely belong to any other British bird (Eggs B. B. ed. 3. 
p. 106). :
