grown to willow, but some white alder; located out
in jungle, alongside of indistinct deer-trail; overtopped,
well shaded, by lush green willow and older foliage;
rim 1400 mm. above ground, nest insse^^securely supported
among cluster of upright small willow stems and
emanating leaves. Taken (2/4)*, and [female symbol] parent shot.

Russet-backed Thrushes' nest: in same bog as
last; rim 780 mm. above ground; situated in rather
low willow clump, with larger (taller) clumps of
willow and white alder about separated from
one another by openings grown to lush grass and buttercup;
a meadow stream runs 20 feet away. The green
leafage above and all about the nest effectually
conceals the nest until parted. The nest
is supported on a slanting willow stem plus
adjacent twigs and foliage. Taken (1/4)**, and [female symbol]
parent taken; [male symbol] heard singing in vicinity
mornings and evenings ever since we have been
