THE WARBLERS 



With the exception of Maryland

 seen only as transient visitants, al- 

 though doubtlessly some of them re- 

 main to nest. With the exception of 

 the Myrtle Warbler which is always 

 very common in migration, they all 

 seem to appear in about the same de- 

 gree of abundance; some springs cer- 

 tain species are rare or missing al- 

 together, and the next spring they are 

 common.
