SOME FURTHER REMARKS UPON BACHMAN S SPAR- 

 ROW {PEUC.^A .ESTIVA LIS BACHMANII ) 

 IN VIRGINIA. 



In the first number of the present volume of the Bulletin there is a 

 short article relating to the occurrence of Bachman's Sparrow in 

 Virginia This article was based principally upon the specimens I took 

 along Black-water creek, in Campbell county, Virginia, in May, 1897, 

 when I found a pair nesting. These were the first birds of this species ever 

 taken in Virginia. The only other northern record was the one taken by 

 Mr. Figgins, which referred to a specimen taken in Maryland some years 

 ago. 



I now have the pleasure of recording the fact that the birds are even 

 common in ,\lbemarle county, Virginia. Several nests were found there 

 by Mr. Barringer, who found the birds plentiful there in May and June. 

 As this is a tvpical southern form it seems strange that it should go so 

 far out of its usual habitat in Albemarle. Probably the species will be 

 found abundant in many parts of the state if careful search is made. I 

 think it will be found abundant both in Campbell and Albemarle counties.
