*' This bird is met with in pairs, sometimes in a family of four or 
five, and may be seen under every bush. The nest is placed near 
tlie ground in the midst of some thick low bush, or on the side of a 
bank amidst overhanging coarse grass, and not unfrequently in 
exposed and well-frequented places ; it is loosely and rather slovenly- 
constructed of coarse dry grasses and stalks externally, lined some- 
times with fine grass, sometimes with fine roots. The eggs are 
three in number, and in shape and size exceedingly variable, being 
sometimes of an ordinary oval, at others nearly round. Diameter 
varying, 1^^ X if , or 1 inch x or H- X -y- ; the most usual 
measurement, however, is the second one, or 1 inch x W inches." —
