165. Bombycilla cedrorum, Cedar Waxwing. A locally common sum- 
mer resident, and some will probably be found in winter, too. 
The Bohemian Waxwing (Bombycilla gzrrula) has been reported 
once or twice from Whiting, Lake County. 
166. Lanius Borealis, Northern Shrike. Mr. Stoddard shot one of 
this species at Mineral Springs, December 23, 1916. 
167. Lanius ludovicianus migrans, Migrant Shrike. A rather rare 
summer resident. There is a pair yearly building its nest at Mineral 
Springs, near the electric railway station; but that is the only pair I 
know of. 
168-171. The Vireos are represented by the Red-eyed (Viroesylva 
olivacea) and the Warbling Vireos (Vireosylva gilva gilva) as summer 
residents, the former moderately common, the latter rare; and the Phil- 
adelphia (Vireosylva philadelphica) and the Blue-headed Vireos (Lani- 
vireo solitarius solitarius) as uncommon migrants. The Yellow-throated 
(Laniviree flavifrons) should be here, but we have not yet seen it. 
In respect to Wood Warblers the Dunes are a disappointment, both 
as regards nesting and migrating ones. There must be something in 
the biological or physiographic conditions that is repellant to most spe- 
cies. In the woodland tract just south of the Dunes proper, they are 
abundant enough during migration, but in the Dunes only certain species 
as the Myrtle, Magnolia and Palm Warblcrs are, or they may be nor- 
mally numerous at certain points where a large tract of woodland par- 
takes of the character of the non-dune forest, as at Tremont. 
The following species breed here: The Black and White Creeping 
(Mniotilta varia), the Yellow Warbler (Dendrocia aestiva aestiva), the 
Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapillus), the Maryland Yellow-throat (Geoth- 
lypis trichas trichas), the Redstart (Setophaga ruticilla), the Chat 
(Icteria virens virens). Of these the Yellow-throat is the commonest, 
the shrubbery along the many pools proving congenial to it; next comes 
the Yellow Warbler, which is common in a few bushy pools near Millers 
and Dune Park, then the Ovenbird, but only at Tremont. The Black 
and White Creeper is not common, the Redstart still rarer, and the Chat 
has been found only one summer and in one place. The Pine Warbler 
(Dendroica vigorsi) and the Prairie Warbler (Dendroica discolor) prob- 
ably breed here, since they each have been found once in breeding time 
or nearly so, as the latter, July 16, 1916, at Tremont by Dr. A. Lewy. 
The following may breed here occasionally, as they have been found 
in all the adjoining area around the Dune region: The Worm-eating 
Warbler (Helmitheros vermivorus), the Prothonotary Warbler (Proton- 
otaria citrea), which nests abundantly at Kouts, Porter County; the
