PLATE LXIV. 
The Twite 
Is an emigrant from his native country, and vifits us in the winter like the Red Pole, which indeed 
it much refembles, except in the red on the breaft, of which the Twite has not the leaft appearance. 
They are caught in great numbers, for the purpofe of teaching them to draw water, and open a box 
for their food. They are apt fcholars, and very aftive. Being a bird of no fong, and not building 
with us, they are little known in the country, and called the Twite, perhaps, only by the London 
bird catchers. They feed on any hard feed, or thillles, and the male is fomething richer in colour 
than the female.
