tigrinct) and a Black-throated Blue Warbler {Dendroeca caru- 

 lescens) in the same place on August 16. Also a Black- 

 burnian Warbler (^Dendroeca hiackhurnim) at Hampton on 

 July 14. I think that the Bay-breasted WarJjler {Dendraca 

 castcmea) cannot be considered very rar.e as I shot one at 

 Hampton and thirteen at Rothesay. I also shot a pair of 

 Blue Yellow-backed Warblers (Panda aTnericana) at Hamp- 

 ton, which evidently had a nest in the neighborhood, and a 

 male at Rothesay. At Hampton I saw a pair of Chestnut- 

 sided Warblers [Dendrcieca 2)€nnsJi/vamca) and also shot a 

 young bird at Rothesay.^ 



The Swamp Sparrow {Melospiza jxdustris^ is very com- 

 mon resident in suitable localities both at Rothesay and 

 Hampton; indeed in these places it seemed nearly as com- 

 mon as in Massachusetts. 



Least Flycatchers (Enijjidonax minimus) were not un- 

 common in the village of Hampton, and, allowing for see- 

 ing the same bird frequently, there must have been at 

 least twenty or twenty-five about. 



Pine Finches [Chrysomitris jyi^^us) were abundant in all 

 the gardens and streets of Hampton, Ijut I saw none at 

 Rothesay. There were young birds just fledged with 

 them on July 16. 



Wilson's Thrushes [Tiirdiis fuscescens), QiitA^'iYdi^ [Mimus 

 carolinensis). Black-billed Cuckoos [Coccyyus erythroijh- 

 thalmus), and Tennessee Warblers [Helminthophaga pere- 

 grma)>, occurred at Hampton, but none were seen at 

 Rothesay. 



The fall migration began about August 22; after that 

 date Red-bellied Nuthatches (Sltta canadensis). Winter 

 Wrens [Anothura hyemalis), and Golden-crowned Kinglets 

 [Regidus satiripus) were very common, though rare or 

 absent until then.
