Text Appearing Before Image:
nest is built in a less elaborate manner, withouteither dome or porch, the form of the structure being adapted to thepeculiarities of the situation chosen ; the principle of suspension is likewiseoccasionally abandoned. Five or six eggs are usually found to a nest, theyare white, with red spots, ovoiconical in shape, 8 lines in length, with abreadth of 6 lines. No bird suffers so frequently from the imposition of thegolden-winged Cuckoo, as the grey Warbler. We have several times observeda pair of these industrious little insect-eaters, feeding a young parasite largerthan themselves. The Cuckoo only arrives in October, when the wai-mth ofSpring is well established ; and one reason for the selection of the Warblershome, in addition to its pencile character, appears to us to be, because from itsshape and structure it is the warmest nest, to be found, for rearing so tender abird as the Chrysococcyx, our gay visitor, during the spring and summermonths.
