from New Providence, Bahamas, 509 



Mr. Cory describes this bird as resident, but I did not 

 observe it between the months o£ April and October, although 

 it is the most abundant of the genus during the whole winter. 

 On and after August 18th I never failed to meet with it, 

 both on the pine-barrens and round the houses in the town.
