Bulletin No. 20. 



37 



We arrived home at 8:30 v. m., having spent seventeen and a half hours 

 with the birds, and having secured a horizon of 102 species. 



In glancing over such a list it is instructive to note the deficiencies, as 

 well as the names present. In the first place it was not a warbler day. 

 Altho eighteen species were found, it was only by hard work, for the 

 warblers were scanty and scattered. Almost any day of the week pre- 

 vious must invariably have yielded more species and many times more 

 individuals. Again, certain other species are bound to have been in the 

 county on that da}-, but were not seen simply because of the necessary 

 limitations of time and strength. Among such must be reckoned at least 

 the Turkey Vulture, Broad-winged Hawk, Red-tailed Hawk, Sharp- 

 shinned Hawk, Cooper's Hawk, Screech Owl, Barred Owl, Red-bellied 

 Woodpecker, Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, Whippoorwill, Cedar-Bird, Bay- 

 breasted Warbler and Yellow-breasted Chat. 



We don't want to boast, but if any of the brethren encounter better 

 luck within the limits of a single day and county, we want to hear from 

 them in future numbers of the Wilson Bulletin. Tlie following is 

 the horizon complete ;
