generally fly down from if top of a bush, but 
always ascend it by hopping from twig to twig. 
The nest is made in the centre of a thorny bush 
two or three feet from the ground; and is round 
and domed, with a small aperture at the side, and 
built entirely of fine dry grass. The eggs are four in 
number and pure white.
