green, the others are of a deep steel-blue, having the 
inner webs bordered with chestnut-red. Two beau-

Another lovely bird having a singular distribution 
of the plumes upon the neck, will be seen on our 
next Plate. The form of the tail, however, is very 
different, and the bill is distinctly curved from the 
base.
