The eggs of the Song-Thrush are chiefly of a broad oval shape, 

 but some are elongated and pointed, and others are spheroidal. 

 They are, as a rule, very glossy. 



The ground-colour is a bright, clear greenish blue, marked with 

 roundish spots of dark purplish-brown or black ; at the broad end the 

 markings are generally larger and more numerous, some being of 

 irregular shape and more of the nature of blotches.
