JVjLR. Edwards discovered this beautiful bird 

 twice in our island, once near London, at Nor- 

 wood, and another time in Norfolk.* The 

 figure of this and of the Oriole, were copied, 

 by permission, from his excellent and accurate 

 designs, which we gratefully acknowlege, as 

 well as every other assistance from our worthy 

 friend, whose pencil has done as much honor 

 to our country, as the integrity of his heart, 

 and communicative disposition, have procured 

 him esteem from a numerous and respectable 

 acquaintance. 



The size of this bird appears by the print to Dbsckip. 

 be equal to that of a stare. The bill at the 

 point is black, at the base of a dirty flesh color : 



* Dr. Shaio, in the seventh volume of the Naturalist's Mis- 

 cellany, tab. 231, gives the figure of a specimen shot in Oocford
