123 THE WILSON BU LLETI N— September, 1921 



Warbling Vireo (Vircusyiva gilva gilva). 



Reported by Mrs. George May as very common in the spring ol' 

 1912. My sister, Rubby Sprn'rell, has fii'st dates for this species 

 from May 3 to 25. Mr. Joe Abernathy reported finding two nests 

 north of Wall lake. I identified it May 15. 1915, largely by its 

 song. 

 Blue-headed Vireo {Lanlvirco solifaiius solitariiis) . 



Reported by Mrs. George May as rare. My sister has seen it 

 on May 8. 1913, and May 15, 1914. 

 White-eyed Vireo (Vireo grisdis grisciis) . 



Reported by Mrs. George May as rare. 

 Black and White Warbler {MniolUta varia). 



A common and regular migrant in spring and fall. As it creeps 

 about the tree trunks it is quite conspicuous as compared with 

 many warblers. My first seen dates vary fi'om May 2 to 15. 

 Blue.v.finged Warbler (Vennivora lyinus). 



Mrs. George May reported three seen in tlie spring of 1912. 

 Nashville Warbler (V(r))iivoia ruhricapiUa ruhricapilla) . 



I fii-st identified this species from a dead specimen. It is a 

 tolerably common migrant when present, but was not observed 

 five years out of eight. First seen from May 14 to 22. 

 Orange-crowned Warbler (Vcrmii'ora cclata cclata). 



A rare migrant. I first identified it May 23. 1915. It is diffi- 

 cult to be certain of a sight identification of this species, but I saw 

 the "orange" on the head of this particular one several times. 

 Tennessee Warbler {Vcrmivora peregrimi) . 



Mrs. George May reported several seen in 1912. I identified it 

 May 16. 1915. It is a tolerably common migrant. 

 Northern Parula Warbler {Co^ipsofhlypis (nncrivana iisneae). 



This warbler is a rare migrant. I identified it May 13, 1913, 

 when I obtained an excellent view of one out of a number, thru 

 the field glasses. They were part of a "wave"' of all kinds of 

 warblers. 

 Cape May Warbler {Ihiidroicd iigriiui)- 



I first identified it positively May 4, 1915, although I have had 

 glimpses of it in previous years. My sister has also observed it 

 in years when I did not see it. It is a rare migrant. 

 Yellow Warbler (Drndroica acstira acstiva). 



An abundant migrant and common breeder. First seen dates 

 vary from April 30 to May 12. It nests commonly in shrubbery 

 and the nests often contain cowbird eggs. It has been my ex- 

 perience that the warbler always deserts its nest if the cowbird's 

 egg is removed. 

 Myrtle Warbler (l)r)i(Irnica coranata) . 



Ordinarily a common to abundant migrant, but in some years 

 is almost rare. Fii'st seen dates are from April 15 to May 3.
