There is also an adult male in Miss Runnacles' collection 
taken at Ajo on the 12th of August, 1909, to which district 
it is a rare visitant.

The young male is similar to the adult female, but not so 
sandy rufous below. 
A common bird at Ajo, where it does not a little damage 
to fruit &c» in the gardens. 
I have been unable to decide whether it breeds in this 
district or not ; but I think there is little doubt that it does 
breed here, as not only have I shot young birds which had not 
long left the nest, but in December 1908 Miss Runnacles 
secured for me several females that had undoubtedly been 
sitting, and again in January 1910 I shot females that had 
been sitting recently. 
It also appears to be subject to partial migration, as 
the following note supplied to me by Miss Runnacles 
shews- 
During August and September, 1909, the ( Siete Colores 9 
was extremely numerous, but suddenly disappeared about 
the first week in October, after which not one was to be seen, 
and they did not put in an appearance until near the be¬ 
ginning of December, when a few females and young birds 
were observed.”—/. G. R.
