300 Brimtey, Migration at Raleigh, N. C. [sie 
Notes on preceding table of summer visitors. 
(a). Little Blue Heron is a post breeding summer visitor. 
(b). King Rail has been recorded on January 23, 1890, February 
29, 1896, March 9, 1905, March 17, 1888, March 23, 1897 and 
March 30, 1896, so that although we are certain it is only a straggler 
in winter, we cannot tell which date should go on record as the 
earliest date of a summer bird. 
(c). The next latest date for Whip-poor-will is October 10, 1885. 
Excluding the extra late date of November 6, 1894, the average 
latest is September 19. 
(d). The first dates for Chimney Swifts fall into three groups, 
the first centering on April 6 (7 yrs.), the next on April 13 (9 yrs.), 
the last on April 22 (10 yrs.). The breeding birds come on the 
latter date. 
(e). Chipping Sparrow once taken on December 29, 1890. 
(f). Purple Martin once seen on March 16, 1907. 
(g). Blue-headed Vireo on December 15, 1885, and January 3, 
_ (h). White-eyed Vireo on March 8, 1890. 
(i). Black and White Warbler once also on November 10, 1885. 
(j). Yellow Warbler only occasional after August. 
(k). A probably more nearly correct date for the arrival of the 
Ovenbird is obtained by taking the average of the 19 years giving 
earliest dates, which gives us April 13 for the average date of 
arrival. 
(1). I have a single record of the Louisiana Water-Thrush for 
August 22, 1888, but it was “seen” and not taken, and I think 
was probably a Water-Thrush. 
(m). Next latest for Kentucky Warbler, September 12, 1894. 
(n). Maryland Yellow-throat also observed on December 6, 
1889, January 8, 1891, January 30, February 4, 1890, and February 
7, 1889. 
(0). Catbird also seen on January 4, and February 17, 1887, 
and January 8 and 12, 1910.
