120 BIRDS OF SWOPE PARK 



Park in the same localities as the Parula Warbler. A little 

 practice will enable one to distingnish it by its song which 

 bears some resemblance to that of the Parula. It would be a 

 misfortune to have them driven from the Park by too much 

 of an encroachment on the wild woods they inhabit. Both 

 Cerulean and Parula Warblers arrive during the latter half of 

 April, but the Cerulean is usually a week later than the

 1916.) 



Sycamore Warbler, Dendroica dominica albilora (Ridge-

 but probably more common along Shiloh Hollow and the 

 Blue River in the Park than the records would indicate, for
