. [Collected reprints, 1911-1931. Ornithology; Mammals. 1922] Swarth: Birds and Mammals of the Stikine Region 271 The nest taken (no. 1821) is more compact than most of those found at Telegraph Creek, due to the firmer support given by the short, stiff fir twigs, closely encircling the structure, as compared with the sparse and slender branches of the lodgepole pine. It measures as follows: outside diameter, 178 mm.; inside diameter, 76; outside depth, 76; inside depth, 38 mm. The black moss enters into the con- struction of this nest to a greater extent than in any of the others. There is but the scantiest framework of twigs on the outside, lending support to the moss, which forms about nine-tenths of the entire struc- ture. There is but very little of the white fiber that is so conspicuous in some of the others.. Fig. BB. Nest and eggs of waxwing found near Telegraph Creek; nest near the top of a small lodgepole pine. Photograph taken June 22, 1919. It will be seen that the waxwings' nests were all very much alike in structure and location. All were in conifers, in rather open woods, and not far above the ground (six to twenty-five feet). The nests with one exception were against the trunk of the tree. The building material was always the same, an outer structure of dead twigs, lend- ing support to a mass of black moss and white plant fiber. Dry grass was used as a lining sometimes but not always. The black moss was the one material that was used in the greatest amount, and it appears in all but one of the nests. This moss grows abundantly on the conifers of the region, depending from the branches in great masses, like coarse hair. The white plant fiber that is also so conspicuous in the nests is from the seed pod of the previous year's dead "fireweed" {Epiloiium angustifolium)..
