Eggs of Wagler's Hangnest vary much in shape, some being of 

 a rather wide oval form, others of a much elongate and pointed 

 oval shape: they exhibit only a trace of gloss. The ground is palo 

 greenish-blue, spotted and blotched, chiefly at the broad end, with 

 pale sepia-brown, dark chocolate-brown and lilac-grey. The 

 markings of the last-named colour are few, small and inconspicuous ; 

 the other markings are large and frequently confluent. They vary 

 in length from 1'2 to 1'5. and in breadth from -86 to •%'d.
