Abundant everywhere in small flocks. Collected at Fuji, Chiusenji 
Lake, and in Shinshiu. Young of the year differ from adults in having 
the upper parts, crown, back, and wing-coverts dull rufous. The ear 
coverts are of the same color, thus showing a near affinity to glandarius. 
It is also worthy of notice that the iris of young birds is light blue, as 
in glandarius.
