Text Appearing Before Image:
mber, of adull white, exhibiting stains from the weeds upon which they repose. The plumage of summer may be thus characterized. The top of the head, back of the neck, and uppersurface black, with a slight tinge of green ; a stripe of light chestnut which takes its origin from the base of thebeak, and passes through the eye, is spread over two tufts of silky feathers, which rise like horns on each sideof the occiput; the feathers of the cheeks are lengthened and spread out into a beautiful frill of a rich greenishblack ; the fore part of the neck and edges of the flanks of a rich chestnut; the under surface silvery white ;tarsi and feet dull olive, with the exception of the anterior and posterior edges of the former, which are yellow;beak black, tipped with yellow ; irides crimson. The female strictly resembles the male, except that her size is rather less, the plumes less brilliant, andthe ornament of the head less developed. The Plate represents a male and female of the natural size.
