- Description:
- In nearly all these slides it will be noticed that the materials used by the birds for constructing their nests harmonize in a marked degree with their surroundings. This is specially noticeable in Nos. 549, 550, and 552.
When a very slight, or no nest, has been constructed, as in Nos. 559 to 563, the ground colour of the eggs agrees with the prevailing tint of the surroundings, and the markings on the eggs very much resemble in colour the more prominent objects around. - Exhibit type:
