108. Junco hyemalis. Very abundant migrant in spring and fall, in company 



with Spizella monticola and s. pallida, but never seen in summer. 



109. Melospiza fasciata. First noticed in numbers last spring, in company 



with Spizella monticola, Junco hyemalis, Zonotrichia leucophrys, and 

 a few Carpodacus purpureus and Passerella iliaca. Probably not un- 

 common, but an irregular transient, 

 no. Passerella iliaca. Migrant, not very common, 



111. Habia ludoviciatia. Rare, only a few during summer; probably breeds 



in the country. 



112. Prague subis. Not uncommon but local. Noted breeding every year in 



great numbers in the dead trees of a willow and poplar thicket among 

 marshes. 



113. Tachycivetabicolor. Abundant every year and breeding in groat num- 



bers throughout the region. 



1 14. Ampelis garrulus. Uncommon straggler, shot once only, but twice 



noted in spring of 1895. 



115. Ampelis cedrorum. More frequently seen than the last, but not common. 



116. Lanitis borealis. Very common and regular summer visitor, breeding 



throughout the country. 



117. Dendroica cEstiva. \ Very abundant summer residents in thickets, 



118. Dendroica coronata. J arriving in May and breeding in company. 



119. Galeoscoptes carolinensis. Uncommon ; several times heard in the 



thickets, but only Once seen ; and, from the time of year in which it was 

 seen, I have no doubt of its breeding in the region. 



120. Troglodytes aedon aztems. | g^^^ frequently seen, but in summer only. 



121. Troglodytes hyemalis. J 



122. Pants atricapillus septentrionalis. Common permanent resident, but, 



although it disappears during the summer months, I believe it breeds 

 in the countrj', as I noted once a family late in summer, wandering 

 among the low bushes and thickets. 



123. Turdus fuscescens. Not uncommon and probably more common than I 

 believe ; breeding in the region, as I once found one nest with four 

 blue unspotted eggs, and killed the hen near by. 



124. Turdus ustulafus s'lvaitisoni. As frequently seen as the preceding and 



aljO breeding in the region. 



125. Merula migratoria. Very abundant summer visitor, and breeding in 



great numbers throughout the country.
