THE REED WARBLER 73 



Marsh Warbler i^Acrocephahis pa/usl>is), which is 

 one of the rarest of our summer migrants. Its song, 

 which we have not heard, is said to be much finer 

 than that of the Reed Warbler; but this species, 

 so far as is at present known, is so rare and local 

 that it scarcely merits more than passing notice in 

 the present volume.
