The eggs of Giraud's Tyrant-bird are normally of a narrow oval 

 shape and exhibit a varying amount of gloss. They are white, 

 marked with spots and small blotches of purplish red, lilac-red, and 

 lavender. In the majority of specimens, the markings are more 

 dense at the broad end and form an irregular cap, but in others 

 they are evenly distributed over the entire shell. Examples 

 measure from -85 to 1'02 in length, and from -67 to -71 in breadth.

 shape, and slightly glossy. They are cream-coloured, and while some 

 are marked with spots and small blotches of dark umber-brown and 

 lavender, others are marked with huge confluent blotches of light 

 reddish brown together with spots of dark reddish brown and 

 lavender most densely at the broad end, where the markings often 

 form a cap. Specimens measure from 1-06 to 1-25 in length, and
