Isotope shifts and hyperne structures of the 205;206;208;210;210m;212;213 Bi isotopes have been studied on the 306.7nm line using gas cell laser spectroscopy. The neutron{ rich isotopes are the rst isotones of Pb to be measured immediately above the N=126 shell closure. The ground state quadrupole moments of the even{N isotopes increase as neutrons are added or removed from the N=126 shell, but no corresponding increase is observed in the charge radii. IS344
