Butane en, INGO G: 
February, fince which he has met with feveral of both fexes, and 
conjectures that this fpecies breeds in thofe parts; it cannot be won- 
dered how the circumftance may till now have efcaped the obferva- 
tions of the naturalift, the female being extremely like that fex of the 
Yellow Bunting, fo as to deceive almoft any one. Ina letter from 
~ the late Mr. Hudjon, he fays: I am convinced that I faw in Devonfhire, 
in pretty good plenty, the Ember. Cia or Foolifb Bunting, and which 
might before then have been miftaken for the hen of a Yellow Bunt- 
mg; but on my relating this to Colonel Montagu, he fays he has never 
met with it, which he moft likely muft have done had it inhabited 
thofe parts, and where the Colonel has refided himfelf for a long 
time paft.
