The eggs of the Tawny Pipit are generall;^ of a broad oval form, 

 frequently pointed, sometimes blunt, and many specimens are 

 highly glossy. The ground-colour varies from white to pale 

 greenish- or greyish-white. The markings are of two general types. 

 In one type, the egg is thickly marked with fine distinct and 

 roundish dots of purplish -brown and underlying lavender. In the 

 second type, the surface is streaked and blotched, rather coarsely, 

 ■with umber-brown or reddish-brown and underlying lavender or 

 purplish-grey. These are the two extreme types, and intermediate 

 forms between them are of common occurrence. Specimens measure 

 from "78 to "93 in length, and from "58 to "7 in breadth.
