The occurrence of this storm immediately before Thanksgiving 

 day probably accounts for the large number of birds taken as lo- 

 cal gunners were out in force during the holiday.

Note on the Nesting of Bewick's Ween. — In Dawson's Birds 

 of Ohio, there is a photo of mine showing the nest and eight eggs of 

 Bewick's Wren, built in an old coffee cup. This picture was taken 

 on May 13, 1901, in Ross County, Ohio. The accompanying photo- 



graph of nest and seven eggs of Bewick's Wren was built by the 

 same pair of birds at the same place on April 28, 1902. Bewick's 

 Wren in southern Ohio has two broods, and often three, the first 

 having from seven to eleven eggs, the second generally from three 

 to six. Nesting falls in late April and early May and again in 

 June, and even July. In middle western Ohio It is a rather rare 

 summer resident, and in northern Ohio a straggler only.
