50 LESSER KESTREL. 



The egg of this bird is from a drawing kindly sent 

 me by M. Moquin-Tandon. The egg from which the 

 drawing is made was supplied to M. Moquin-Tandon 

 by M. Parreys, of Vienna. Badeker, (Die Eier der 

 Europ v Vog., pi. 10, fig. 4,) has represented six 

 varieties of this species.
