THE OOLOGIST.

and the last one three eggs. Showing 

 that it was too early for them. 



Late that afternoon we started for 

 home, went part way and finished the 

 trip next day, finding a set of two 

 Vermillion Flycatchers, incubation ad- 

 vanced, a set of six Sonoran Redwings 

 taken on account of size of set, and 

 another set of five Sparrow Hawks. 



We also found sets of the following 

 •eggs but as our boxes were already 

 •crowded we left them. They are: 

 Cactus Wrens, Aberts Towhees (Bul- 

 locks Orioles, Doves, Arkansas King- 

 birds and Roadrunners.

P.S. — I have been very much inter- 

 ested in the accounts on finding sets 

 of three doves' eggs. A friend of mine 

 has just written fom Arizona, stating 

 that he has found two nests of Mourn- 

 ing Daves each containing three eggs 

 and a set of three White-winged 

 Doves, (melopela leucoptera.

Pennsylvania. 



The rarity of this species in South- 

 ern Pennsylvania, makes it advisable 

 to place on record the recent capture 

 of an individual of this variety. It 

 was taken during September, 1904, at 

 Fort Washington by Mr. James Cam- 

 blos. At the time of its capture the 

 bird was sitting on the limb of a tree 

 standing in an open field and proved 

 very easy to approach. Mr. Camblos, 

 recognizing the rarity of the bird, had 

 it mounted and afterward generous- 

 ly presented the specimen to the writ- 

 er. It is now in my collection and is 

 a fine male in the blue back plumage. 

 This is, so far as I am able to ascer- 

 tain, the only record of this bird in 

 southeastern Pennsylvania for a num- 

 ber of years.
