Starling at London. 



On the morning of May 15th, 1921, sev- 

 eral members of our Bird Club motored to 

 Port Stanley to spend a few hours with 

 the birds. We found them very numerous 

 and in the sheltered nooks the air was full 

 of song. The principal item of interest 

 was t]ie finding of three Starlings along 

 the lake front. Our attention was called 

 by their harsh guttural notes; although 

 they flew away several times, they always 

 returned to the tall dead tree where we 

 first noticed them. This is the first record 

 for the Starling -for our vicinity. 



We have another interesting visitor to 

 report in Henslow's Sparrow. It was first 

 noticed on May 4th and remained in the 

 same field for ten days. In fact it may 

 still be there, but we were unable to catch 

 its insignificant "song" on our last visit 

 or two to the field on account of the num- 

 ber of Bobolinks, Kingbirds and Goldfinches 

 that were flying about and filling the air 

 with a babel of song. This is the second 

 record for London (one having been .heard 

 last spring), and the bird has only been re- 

 ported from some three other places in 

 Ontario.
