WHEATEAE. 67 



near Worcester, in 1846, by E. Berkeley, Esq., of that place. 

 'The black streak over the eyes, cheeks, and ears, was gone, 

 but there is a slight trace of the white line; the flight feathers 

 and wing coverts are white, edged with a band of buff; the 

 upper tail coverts and part of the tail is white, as in ordinary 

 birds of this species, but all the rest of the plumage in this 

 specimen is a kind of buff.'
