SITUATION- I discovered this nest when the 

 bird flushed from the nest - she flew from 

 it when I was directly under the lira"b on whi oh 

 it was placed. The nest was situated on a 

 horizontal limb of a large Pine tree in fairly 

 deep woods at an elevation of approximately 

 12 1 and it was about 7 1 from the trunk of the 

 tree. The two white eggs were discernible 

 through the flimsy stuctii- e of the nest, which 

 consisted of small twigs and a few grasses.
