THESE birds are believed to breed within the limits of the Arctic 

 circle in holes among rocks, or in deep forests. 



Professor Thieneman figures -two of the eggs, from which the plate 

 is taken. 



One is of a pale green colour, slightly dotted all over with small 

 brown specks and dots. 



The other is of a similar ground colour, but the spots, which are 

 of a rather dark greenish brown colour, are somewhat more numerous, 

 and a good deal collected together at the thicker end of the egg.
