WHITE-WINGED CROSSBILL. Loxia leucaptera. November 1. 1919. 

 a single bird taken near Helrasburg. Brown County, Indiana, by Philip 

 Baker, and .sent to me for identification. It, with a small flock of American 

 Crossbills, was feeding in a group of spruce trees. All except one flew 

 away when the observer approached. That was the specimen of this species 

 which I have. November 20, 1920, Mr. Baker saw a single white-winged 

 Crossbill with eight American Crossbills in the same spruce trees. They 

 were eating spruce seeds and were very tame. These may have been the 

 same birds .seen November 1, w'hich remained in the neighborhood. Fall 

 records of this species are very scarce. Two White-Winged Crossbills col- 

 lected by L. L. Walters. November 9, 1919. between Mineral Springs and 

 Dune Park, Indiana.
