PASSERES— FRINGILLIDAE— CHRYSOMITRIS TRISTIS. 



243 



structures, made of twigs and sheeps' wool ; eggs, five in number, greenish- 

 blue, spotted with black. 



In every portion of New Mexico and Arizona visited by the survey, 

 they have been found numerous. They were very abundant at Camp 

 Apache the first of December, frequenting the ravines and hill sides covered 

 with pinons and cedars, as well also as the stubble fields and weeds, where 

 they feed eagerly upon the seeds. They probably pass the winter here, and 

 even, I think, considerably farther north.
