Dr. Elliott Coues makes note of two white unmarked eggs of this species, taken by William G. Smith, in Colorado. Dr. Merrill says that this species is perhaps the most common resident species at Ft. Klamath, Ore., andin winter is seldom out of sight or hearing. Between May 25 and July 4, five nests containing eggs were discovered in Woodpeckers' holes in aspen or pine stubs; The eggs were five to eight in number, and of the five sets two are entirely unspotted; in two, one or two eggs are pure white, the others having faint, light brown spots, mostly at the larger end; in the other set two of the eggs are quite unmarked, but the others have distinct reddish spots.

The eggs have an average size of .60x.41 inches.. V39. Siberian Chickadee (From Turner.) 739. SIBERIAN CHICKADEE. Pants ductus obtectits (Cab.) Geog. Dist.—Eastern Siberia and Northern. Alaska.
