 I suppose this bird must be classed as a resident with us, 

 though it is by no means common. It is most capricious 

 in its appearance, numbers of them appear suddenly, 

 staying a short time and then disappearing. It will be 

 seen, however, from the notes at the head of this that a few 

 remain with us to breed yearly. 



Their nests are, I am sorry to say, but very seldom left 

 undisturbed, as the young are always taken for cage birds.
