Myrtle Warblers in Northern Wisconsin in January.— Mrs. 

 Leeland L. Gibbs, of Antigo, Wisconsin, writes that a flock of about 

 a dozen of these birds were found in that vicinity in January. Dur- 

 ing the stay of the birds the temperature was below zero for several 

 days at a time. Mrs. Gibbs has never before known of the occur- 

 rence of the Myrtle Warbler in Wisconsin in winter. — (Ed.) 



White-eyed Vireo (Vireo novehoracensis) in Northern Ohio. — 

 Along with several other birds of southern distribution in Ohio, this 

 one ranges to Lake Erie in the eastern counties, but has not hitherto 

 been found in the northwestern parts of the state. On April 27 and 

 May 4 one was seen on the Cedar Point sand spit, and on April 29 

 one in the woods a mile south of Oberlin. One captured was a fe- 

 male. These constitute the first Lorain and Erie county records.
