Text Appearing Before Image:
back, dusky brown, the edges and tips of the feathers of apaler tint, rufous white. Lesser wing coverts, tinged withpale blue; the speculum green. In the young birds at first the bill, which is scarcelylarger than usual in proportion to their size, is not dilated,but in three or four weeks assumes its proper and peculiarshape. The young male resembles the female till the autumn.Bewick says that the full plumage is not acquired till afterthe second moult. There were some dark spots on the white in the specimenkilled near York. The engraving is after a design by John Gatcombe, Esq.,of Plymouth. END OF YOL. YI. B.
