The above defcription was taken from a well-done drawing 
belonging to Mr. Pennant; who, I think, mentioned the bird to 
have come from Gibraltar, and that it prefers rocky and moun- 
tainous fituations, being found in fuch places about the A/taic 
Chain, and beyond the Lake Baikal frequent. It is a fhy bird, 
and in courfe difficult to be fhot. 
Willughby talks of it being met with at Florence, and fays it. 
learns to fpeak articulately, like the Stare.
