Y H E bill of this beautiful bird is white, tipped with black j
the bafe furrounded with a ring of rich fcarlet feathers :
from the cornet,of the mouth is a black line : cheeks white :
top of the head black : the white on the cheeks bounded almoft
to the fore part of the neck with black: the hind head white :
back, rump, and bread, pale tawny brown; the two laft lighted :
belly white: wing coverts in the male black : quills black,
marked in their middle with a beautiful yellow j the tips white :
tail black, but mod of the feathers are marked near their ends
with a white fpot: legs white.
The female differs : in her the feathers at the end of the bill
are brown; in the male black : lelfer wing coverts brown : and
the black and yellow on the wings lefs brilliant.
The young bird is grey on the head, and by the bird-catchers
is called a Grey-pate.
This is Mr. Pennant’s defcription, which is more than diffident
to define a bird fo well known. It is much edeemed for its
fine note *, as well as great tamenefs and docility.
