The mother parent was brooding 4 greenish blue eggs, speckled around the larger end with black and brown. The next tree stood in a gravelly clearing a quarter of a mile back from the river. The second nest found was that of a spurred towhee, which flushed from almost under Stuart's feet.

It was situated among the straw- berry plants under a small choke cherry bush. The four eggs were of creamy ground
