The eggs of the Fire-crested Wren are of quite the same 

 character as those of R. regulus, but the ground-colour is tinged 

 with pink, and the markings are of a pale lilac-red colour, mingled 

 with lavender or pale brown. There is no appreciable difference'in 

 the size of the eggs of the two species.
