Jottings. 



Next Oologist will be issued, as agreed, 

 on March 15th, and will be brim full and 

 running over with choice original matter. 

 We intend to make the Oologist for 1888 

 so valuable that not a Student of Birds, their 

 Nests and Eggs, in America can afford to be 

 without it. 



Feb. Bulletin will be out March 15th. 

 Large sales and so much other business has 

 caused the delay. 



The paper on the Egg of the Epyoi'nia 

 was sent us by Mr. J. Tennant of England, 

 and was published at 25c per copy. As it 

 will prove of more than ordinary interest to 

 many of the readers of the Oologist and will 

 also allow us to "catch up" we print it in 

 full. 



The few remaining copies and parts of 

 copies of Maynard's "Birds of New England" 

 as advertised in the Dec. Oologist are be- 

 ing rapidly ' 'snapped up" by collectors know- 

 ing their value,
