Banding. — At Thomasville, Ga., among several wintering pine war- 

 blers trapped in January and February 1924, was one that had been 

 banded there the previous year. Several pine warblers banded in 

 Massachusetts have yielded data on longevity : A pine warbler banded 

 at North Eastham on Cape Cod on August 4, 1931, was retrapped at 

 the same station, April 16, 1934 ; another banded September 1, 1934, 

 was retrapped at the same station on May 27, 1939 ; another banded at 

 this station on September 7, 1934, was killed by an auto on June 20, 

 1939, nearby. A pine warbler banded at East Wareham, Mass., on 

 April 16, 1926, was retrapped at the same station on March 29, 1929, 

 and April 9, 1932, being at least six years and nine months old when 

 last seen. 



Casual records. — A juvenile was shot at Godthaab, Greenland, on 

 October 1, 1899. There are several records of the occurrence of the 

 pine warbler in Bermuda, usually in small flocks. They were found 

 in the islands September 27, 1849; October 5, 1850; October 15, 1850; 

 March 16, 1875 ; and October 4, 1930. On October 16, 1930, one came 

 aboard a ship about 100 miles off Cape Hatteras.

HABITS 



C. J. Maynard (1906) described this subspecies as the resident form 

 of southern Florida, from Volusia, Lake, and Citrus Counties to 

 Homestead and Long Pine Key in the southern Everglades. It has a 

 longer bill and the upper parts are slightly more yellowish. It is 

 evenly distributed in the extensive pine forests throughout its range. 

 Arthur H. Howell (1932) says that—
