Context: Annotation: (Notes of L. A. Fuertes and F. M. Chapman) "Strong suggestion of Seton's picture tho [sic] entirely different - can't well help it." "Bull! Make one of the Redpolls a siskin and we get that much further away from Seton." "Would it be better to make this the long way of the plate and get both birds in the same plane and in more comparable poses?" "Can we have doves as well as pigeons perching?" "Long ear Owl, Barn Owl, Saw Whet, Hawk Owl, Gt. Horned O., Snowy, Screech, Short Ear, Barred, Richdsn." "These vignetted on light wash of gray" "This is fine! Ignore my letter and letter go like this.". Finches and buntings preliminary sketch for Chapman, Frank M., Handbook of Birds of Eastern North America, plate 27..
