NEST AND EGGS OF THE GOLDEN CROWNED KINGLET 
(. REGULUS SATRAP A). 
BY T. M. BREWER. 
I have been recently permitted to examine an example of one of 
ten eggs from an unknown nest, but which, by the pretty sure 
evidence of exclusion, cannot well belong to any other species of 
bird than the Golden-crowned Kinglet ( Regulus satrapa). The 
nest was found in the neighborhood of Bangor, Me., was about 
six feet from the ground, and is now in the possession of Mr. Harry 
Merrill of that city. Through his courtesy I have been permitted 
to examine one of its eggs, and to compare it with sets of the eggs 
of Regulus cristatus and R. ignicapillus of Europe. My reasons 
for supposing the nest and eggs to belong to this species are, that 
this bird is a not uncommon summer resident in that neighbor-
