In their unblown state they are among the most beautiful of natural objects, having an exquisite and pearl-like tint, and a surface polished as glass ; when blown, the surface remains but the hue is gone, and they are of the purest white. (PI. X. Fig. 72. ) THE HAIRY WOODPECKER. Picus villosus. This is a North American species, and is common in orchards during the autumn and winter, where it bores the bark of trees and the decayed wood of palings in search of insects and their larvse. In May it... seeks the forest, and either appropriates to itself the hollow of a tree, or makes one for itself in which to deposit its eggs, which are white, and about five in num- ber. It can only be regarded as a straggler in this country.
128 BRITISH BIRDS' EGGS.
THE THREE-TOED WOODPECKER. Apterus tridactylus. The forests of the northern and eastern portions of Europe, as well as those of Asia, are the abodes of the present spe- cies. It is very abundant in Norway, Russia, and Siberia, and is common in the Swiss Alps.
