179. Vermivora piNus (Linuteus). blue-winged warbler. (641) 



Common spring and fall migrant; and rare summer resident at least in 

 Carroll Comity. About the first of July, 1883?, I saw a nest of young 

 ne'arly able to fly. The nest was in a clump of wild rose bushes on the home 

 farm, just west of the house. The old birds were seen and positively iden- 

 tified. Noted April 28, 1884. Specimens were taken May 10, 1884 ; and May 

 4, 6, 11, and 21, 1885. A fine adult male collected April 27. 1886, north of 

 Bloomington. It was feeding among the young buds in the top of an elm. 

 pjvery now and then it would utter a weak grasshopper-like note. It was 

 alone and the first one seen that year. Several others were seen the next 

 day. I have no records for Vigo County. 



180. Vermivora chrysoptera (Linnanis). golden-winged warbler. (642) 



A rare spring and fall migrant. The only specimen I ever collected in 

 Carroll County, I shot in the grove just north of the railroad bridge at 

 Camden, May 6, 1885. G. G. Williamson obtained one at Bloomington in 

 the spring of 1886. On May 2, 1888, I secured a fine male near Terre Haute. 



181. Vermivora rxtbruapilla kibkicapilla (Wilson). 

 NASH\aLLE warbler. (645) 



Common spring and fall migrant ; arrives from the south about the first 

 to tenth of May ; usually frequenting the upper parts of the tree-tops, not 

 so common near the ground. 



On May 9, 1883, shot two on home farm near Burlington ; after this date 

 many others seen. May 13, 1884, shot one in an old orchard near Porter 

 Sterling's, southwest of Camden ; first of season. Common May 4-7. 1885. 

 A male collected April 30, 1888, near the fair grounds east of Terre Haute ; 

 u female at Sand Hill, ten days later. One noted April 27, 1886, near Bloom- 

 ington. 



182. Vermivora celata celata (Say), orange-crowned warbler. (646) 



Apparently a very rare migrant. I have but one record and that is of a 

 specimen I collected May 5, 1888, on Honey Creek, 5 miles southeast of 

 Terre Haute. 



183. Vermivora peregrina (Wilson). Tennessee warbler. (647)

 May 12, 1884, and May 4 to 19, 1885, when it was very common.

 lected May 12 ; another male collected at the Goose Pond May 3, 1890.
