TRINGA TEMMINCKI. aa iy 
Obs. that the bird in its second nest did not complete the proper

Mr. Hewitson. }

JW. 
Found by Anton in Putharu-puoli, Muonioniska, scarcely two 
fathoms from the spring which rises there and runs into the river 
below the painter woman’s house. Many persons, as they go by, 
stop to drink at this spring. ‘The tame little bird ran about our feet 
almost, but shewed an objection to go into the snares we laid, till at 
last setting some further from the nest we caught it. Anton observed 
that on leaving its nest it first rose at some little distance from it, so 
that he had some difficulty in finding the eggs. The nest was made 
of a little grass, just by a flat stone.

9 3983. Four. 
These appear to be complete nests, blown and laid separately from 
one another by the Pastor Engelmark, protected from the light. 
All these nests were found in and about Kaaressuando, after I had 
left—that is to say, about the end of June. 
§ 3984. Zhree.-—Kautokeino, 1854. 
Collected and brought with other eggs to Kaaressuando by one- 
handed Lassi. 
§ 3985. Fowr.—Vadso, 1855. 
Brought to me. I can hear the bird trilling as I sit in my room, 
and I have examined specimens of it.
