My brother’s notes say:—‘Two eggs which I found by seeing the bird 
ruu off them. They were on an old breck on the south side of the Warren wall, 
between the Brandon road and Parson’s Heath. I got one egg from the same 
place, 8th May, 1852 (§ 3536), which egg I had left for some days in hope 
that the bird would lay a second; but, though she had not forsaken it, she did 
not. These were under a small dead brake which hung over them. It was 
on this breck that William Leeks, the warrener, says that be saw a Bustard’s 
nest some years ago. | 
[§ 3556. Zwo.—Elveden, 25 May, 1857. “HE. N.” 
My brother notes that he found them by seeing the old bird run off them, 
“Tt was on a piece of old breck, to the south of the Redneck Heath, and close to 
the Thetford boundary. I found a nest at the same place, 6 May, 1852 (§ 3535). 
Owing to the number of brakes growing near where the nest was, it was difficult 
to find, as the bird was able to skulk behind them, and get some distance from 
the eggs before I could see her. I put her off several times before I found them, 
and at last I lay under a furze-bush within one hundred yards of the nest, whence 
I saw her directly she got off it. The eggs were incubated perhaps a quarter 
of their time.” |

My. brother wrote :—“ Two eggs, which I found on the same day as the 
above, on the old breck on the north side of the Duke’s Ride plantation, about 
one hundred yards from the covert, and two hundred from where the Ravens 
built this year (§ 2790). I put the bird twice off the eggs before I found them. 
They were nearly fresh.” }
