28 PROCEEDINGS OF THE 



rare bird on the New Jersey side of the river, and the Worm- 

 eating, Kentucky and Blue-winged Warblers* common species 

 in the low woods of eastern Pennsylvania. 



We have not collected birds at Catoxen ; in fact collecting, so 

 far as we are concerned, is tabooed. Neither have we made 

 especial effort to record rarities, our attention has rather been 

 directed to a better acquaintance with the commoner every-day 

 birds that surround us than to the casual transients that look 

 in upon us for a moment without any intention of stopping and 

 making their home at Catoxen Cabin. 



* This species has been seen on the edge of Bear Swamp, May 30, 1906, and 

 along the Rancocas to the north.
