 fairly common; breeds. 



103. Setophaga ruticilla. American Redstart. — Spring and fall 

 migrant; common. 



104. Anthus pensilvanicus. American Pipit. — Winter resident; 

 appearing in flocks; fairly common. 



105. Mimus polyglottos. Mockingbird. — Resident, and would be 

 common if their nests were not destroyed, but they build in such 

 exposed places that they seldom rear a brood. The Georgia legis- 

 lature passed a bill at their last session (November, 1900), protect- 

 ing these birds, but there is not much probability of its being en- 

 forced. 



101. Galeoscoptes carol inesis. Catbird. — Summer resident; com- 

 mon; breeds. 



107. Toxostoma rufum. Brown Thrasher. — Resident; common; 

 but like the Mockingbird not often seen in winter; breeds. 



108. Thryothorus ludovicianus. Carolina Wren. — Resident; fair- 

 ly common; breeds. 



109. Thryomanes berwickii. Berwick's Wren. — Fairly common 

 winter resident; lingering until late in the spring. 



110. Certha familiaris fusca. Brown Creeper. — Winter resident; 

 not common. 



111. Sitta carol inensis. White-breasted Nuthatch. Summer res- 

 ident, but lingering far into the winter. Fairly common; breeds. 



112. Parus bicolor. Tufted Titmouse. — Resident; common; 

 heard or seen in all seasons; breeds. 



113. Parus carolinensis. Carolina Chickadee. — Resident; com- 

 mon, always in company with P. bicolor. Rev. LaPrade found 

 a nest in a stump, natural excavation about three feet from ground, 

 on May 3, 1902, from which he took five eggs. 



114. Regulus satrapa. Golden-crowned Kinglet. — Winter resi- 

 dent; common; generally found in low pine thickets. 



115. Polioptila caerulea. — Blue-gray Gnatcatcher. Summer resi- 

 dent; fairly common; breeds. 



117. Hylocichia swainsonii. Olive-backed Thrush. — Fall mi- 

 grant; arriving about the 15th of September, departing about the 

 20th of October. Abundant; found everywhere. 



118. Hylochichia guttata pallasii. Hermit Thrush. — Fall mi- 

 grant; fairly common. Arriving early in September, but remaining 

 but a few days, they are generally gone by the time the Olive-backs

119. Merula migratoria. American Robin. — These birds are ir- 

 regular visitants, sometimes a few are seen in September, remain- 

 ing but a short time, often seen again in November, the greater part 

 of them appearing in January. When they depart they straggle 

 away a few at a time, a few being seen as late as the 15th of April. 

 Some seasons only a few are observed, but they often arrive in
