NATURE NOTES
THE GREY WARBLER OR RIRO-RIRO Heard more often than seen the grey warbler, one of New. Zealand's most charming little birds, pours out its sweet trilling song during the greater part of the year in all parts of the country. Riro.riro thf, Maori- call it, perhaps from its song, which is more a trill with ciear distinct than a warble. She lays five or six small eggs three-quarters of an inch long sometimes pure white and sometimes flushed with a tinge of pink and freckled Avith reddish spots at the broad end. THE BEACON'S SERVICE FOR SMALL CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS BRINGS BIG RESULTS.
