Worm-eating Warbler. — On October 10, 1911, I made an ex- 

 tremely late record for this Warbler {Hehnitheros vermivorusy. 

 On October 11, 1913, in the same spot and under nearly the same 

 conditions, another was seen. This would seem to indicate 

 that this species remains with us about two weeks longer than 

 any previous records would lead us to believe. — Francis M. 

 Weston, Jr. 



A Week on Bull's Bay. — On June 13, 1913, I started on a trip 

 to Bull's Bay with Mr. Howard Cleaves of the Museum of the 

 Staten Island Association of Arts and Sciences. 



We drove as far as Mr. Arthur T. Wayne's, near Mt. Pleasant, 

 and then took a launch to Bull 's Island where we arrived late in 

 the afternoon. On the trip down and during the first day of our 

 arrival on the Island we saw about thirty-five species, among 

 which was a belated Red-breasted Merganser, and many Black 

 Skimmers and Least Terns, which two species were common 

 during the trip. 



On the second day we saw about nineteen species, the Dow- 

 itcher being an interesting addition to our list. We also found 

 Willets, Least Terns, Wilson 's Plovers, and a Night Hawk breed- 

 ing. 



On June 15 we went to Vessel Reef where we took many pho- 

 tographs and motion pictures of Royal Terns breeding. There 

 we added to our list the Laughing Gull (adult and immature 

 plumage), Cabot's Tern (three pairs breeding), Wilson's Pet- 

 rel (near Bird Bank), and Sanderling. The Laughing Gull has 

 not previously been recorded in South Carolina in June, and Cab- 

 ot 's Tern is an exceedingly rare migrant which had not been 

 known to breed here in recent years. 



We visited also Cape Romain and returned the way we came, 

 covering several branches of bird photography thoroughly, and 

 getting many interesting photographs and motion pictures of 

 birds nesting and in flight. 



On the entire trip we recorded about forty-four species, mostly 

 water birds. — Caspar Chisolm.
