No . 1 shows the nest as first constructed with entrance hole at 
side. When young birds were hatched out, the Weavers, closed up the 
hole in the side, and formed a sort of double barrelled hole in front, 
as shown in photo No . 2 . ' 
No 3 depicts the Canary about to enter the nest to feed her 
young ; unfortunately complete success was not attained as she let her 
young die when about ten days old. WM. SHORE BAILY.
