together again. I am not able to verify this statement, as all 
nests found had eggs or young birds only a few days old. 
The measurements of the eggs, taken from a typical set, are

Upon a ground color of bnlfy cream are blotches, spots and 
specks of soft shades of brown and lavender, quite heavy and 
confluent at the larger end.
