A Preliminary Survey of the Birds of the Coast 

 Region of South Carolina — Supplement ^ 



In many cases, the records given in the Preliminary Survey of 

 the Birds of the Coast Region of South Carolina- were not suffi- 

 ciently complete to substantiate the local status of the species for 

 which they were made. It has, therefore, been the object of 

 the survey in its later worlc to pay closer attention to these 

 species in order that the gaps in the earlier series of records may 

 be filled. The results are very satisfactory. Following is a Ust 

 of the species whose local status, as given by Mr. Arthur T. 

 Wayne, is further established by the records of the survey: — 



1. As permanent residents: Louisiana Heron, Cooper's 

 Hawk, Florida Red-shouldered Hawk, Southern Hairy Wood- 

 pecker, Pileated Woodpecker, Meadowlark, Field Sparrow, Wor- 

 thington's Marsh Wren. 



2. As summer residents: Wilson's Plover, Prairie Warbler. 



3. As winter visitants: Bufflehead; Ruddy Duck, Cowbird, 

 Sharp-tailed Sparrow, Seaside Sparrow. 



4. As transient visitants: Least Sandpiper, Semipalmated 

 Sandpiper, Lesser Yellowlegs. Black-throated Green Warbler.
