PLATE LXXIX. 
The Stone Chatter. 
TPhE Stone Chats are well known : they frequent commons and other places where furze 
buflies abound, in which they make choice for their neft, which is compofed of dried grafs, with 
hair intermixed, and not very correft in its ftruflure. 
In their manner and haunts they referable the Furze Chats, but not in colour. They are 
alfo much fliorter in their feathers. They lay five eggs ; and, like other fmall birds, fit fourteen 
days. They feed upon any infe£ls they can get, fuch as beetles, earwigs, &c. They are found 
near the place they firft take to, for they will not go far from the fpot ; but are at any time 
to be met with in the breeding feafon.
