§ 3643. Four.—Jerisjarvi, June, 1854. 
Hewitson, ‘ Eggs of British Birds, ed. 3, pl. lxxxviii. fig. 1. 
Out of ten, of which three were badly broken, and one subsequently 
thrown away. They were brought on Midsummer-day by the sons of 
Wassara, the Lapp, from the Jerisjarvi district. There were four 
nests containing four eggs each, but unfortunately a servant-maid 
sat upon the basket and crushed many. Five they at once threw 
away. Every one of these eggs seems beyond doubt what it pretends 
to be—Spotted Redshank. 
(One of these was selected by Mr. Wolley for Mr. Hewitson to figure, 
another was given to my brother and myself and is now included in the 
above. What became of the rest I do not know. |

the three eggs. The next day they caught the bird with a snare, 
and its skin is here, examined by me. The eggs were sat upon. It 
was dry, old burnt land, with ling about. ‘The spot was only one 
hundred fathoms from the nest of last year [§ 3638], also found by 
Anton, from which a bird was snared.

Abcut halfway between here [ Muoniovara] and Kiima-leikki—the 
Capercally playing-hill. Ludwig thought it looked like good ground 
for Mustatiutti, so he fired a shot, and up came the bird—tut, tut, 
tjut ; but they could find nothing. Ludwig had before seen the bird 
in a little marsh near. The next day the bird flew up on their 
shooting, and they looked a long time for the nest. Then when they
