The spar- row-like female, with a deeply forked tail and stout bill, might have passed unnoticed; but the male's brilliant head and back glistened, as the Sun shone on this dancing bunch of magenta fea- thers.

There, with quivering wings and upraised crest, he continued the sang ta bis lady-love. Lacking the full- toned deptb of the Rose-breasted Grosbeak's, the deficiency was made up by exuberance. Such an exhibition of excitement! This performance went on for days before we bad the sligbtest idea of where the pair was building. At last we got the general impression that the site must be somewhere up the slape behind the cottage, in a small, tangleil graup of wild cherry, wild plum, and fir trees. But it was nat until the yaung birds were aid enaugh ta make them- selves heard that we definitely la- cated the nest. According ta bird books, it must have been a «"frail, open-work structure of grass, rootiets, bark strips, and veget- able fibres, thickly lined with hair," resembling the Chipping Sparrow's, but larger. The eggs were supposed ta be duli green- blue, spatted with brown, black, and lilac. We bad ta take al that "on trust." The home was 20 feet up in a spruce tree. Laaking down from the top of the slape, leaves impeded aur view. From below, when the sun came from the right direction, the nestlings' heads could be seen an- ly if their necks wene upstretcb- ed. But the continuai "che-wee" (with the accent on the second syllable) was sa vociferous that terpresence couid flot be for- gotten. When the crying was particularly loud we knew a par- ent was bringing dinner, sa watch- ed for a glimpse of the feeding process. We could only guess what food they were given, knowing it might be cutworms, buds from trees, or weed seeds. This spe- dies is said ta be partcuiariy fond of ragweed. but that could not yet be available. On July 23 the place seemed stnangely sulent. The nest was empty; the whole famiiy had flown away.
