Class II. NUTCRACKER. 299 



the tail rounded at the end, black tipt with 

 white ; the vent-feathers white ; the legs dusky. 



This bird is also found in most parts of 

 Europe. We received a specimen from Den- 

 mark, by means of Mr. Brunnich, author of the 

 Ornithologia Borealis, a gentleman to whose 

 friendship we owe a numerous collection of the 

 curiosities of his country. 



It feeds on nuts, from whence the name.
