An ADDITION TO THE BirRDS oF INDIANA. 
By Amos W. BUTLER. 
Harris Sparrow. 
Zonotrichia querula (Nutt). 
A specimen of this western species was taken May 4, 1907, near 
Sheridan, Hamilton County, Indiana, by Ernest P. Walker. It is an adult 
male in good plumage and was found along a hedgerow in company with 
White-crowned Sparrows. ‘The time of capture was about noon. The day 
was rather cool and the birds were hopping about near the ground. It 
was not at all wary and was shot at close range. No others of this species 
were observed. ; 
Mr. Walker has kindly presented the specimen to the Academy and it 
has been deposited in my collection as a verification of this record. 
Harris Sparrow is a bird of the middle United States. It ranges 
from Illinois over the central plains and casually to Oregon. It is re- 
ported as a rare winter visitor in Illinois and Wisconsin. (Ridgway, IIl., 
Orn., I, pp. 266-7). One was taken near Riverdale, Il]., October 6, 1894, 
by J. O. Dunn (Butler, Birds of Indiana, 1897, p. 1178).
