not hear or see them again, so I took the nest and two eggs, which 

 were wet and cold. Even though I did not secure a complete set, 

 I enjoyed my experience with these bright little creatures, one day 

 having the pleasure of watching the male take his morning bath 

 within a few feet of my face. 



I had just the same luck with a Canadian Warbler, discovering 

 the nest before any eggs were laid, returning a week later to find 

 two eggs and then on my next visit finding the nest deserted. 



While at Second Connecticut Lake, late in June, I found a new 

 nest of the Blackpoll Warbler, which was promptly deserted, and I 

 also located two old nests of the Bay-breast, which was a fairly com- 

 mon bird in that region. However, good sets of Blackpoll, Black- 

 throated Green and Blackburnian took the edge off what might well 

 be called a season of disappointments.
