Gould, Handbk. Bds. Aunt., Yol. ii., sp. G62, p. 50G. 
The Masked Gannet was found breeding from September to 
December ; little or no attempt is made at forming a nest, the 
eggs, two in number, usually being deposited on the bare ground, 
when newly laid they are of a pale greenish-white colour, which 
in most instances is covered with a thick coating of lime; after 
being sat upon for a few days the eggs become soiled and assume 
a dirty brown hue. In form they vary from short to long ovals.
