FURTHER NOTES ON ALABAMA BIRDS. 
BY LEWIS S. GOLSAN AND ERNEST G. HOLT. 
SINCE the publication of the ‘ Birds of Autauga and Montgomery 
Counties, Alabama’ (Auk, 1914, pp. 212-235), seven birds have 
been added to the list and additional observations made which 
seem worthy of publication. The capture of Nuttallornis borealis 
furnishes the basis of the second published record (to the knowledge 
of the writers) of this species for the State, Saunders (Auk, 1908, 
p. 418), publishing the first. It seems too that Avery (American 
Field, Jan. 3, 1891, p. 8) published the only previous note on Spinus 
pinus; and the present record of the nesting of Thryomanes bewicki 
bewickt probably indicates the southern breeding limit for the 
species within the State. With one exception, the following notes 
were made by the senior author. 
185. Gallinula galeata. FLormpa GALLInuLE.— A specimen, proba- 
bly injured while in flight by striking a wire or other object, was picked up 
in a yard in the heart of Montgomery on May 22, 1914. It is preserved 
in the Museum of the State Department of Archives and History. 
186. Nuttallornis borealis. Outve-sipep FLiycatcHer.— Male 
taken in Bear Swamp, Autauga County, October 17, 1915. 
187. Spinus pinus.— Prine Sisxkin.— Ten or fifteen seen near Pratt- 
ville, April 25, 1914. November 18, 1916, two were taken from a flock 
of about thirty at Booth. 
188. Passerherbulus henslowi henslowi. Hrnstow’s Sparrow.— 
Male taken in wet woods near Autaugaville, March 11, 1915. 
Iridoprocne bicolor. Tree Swattow.— Fine male taken near Autau- 
gaville, October 3, 1914. 
Stelgidopteryx serripennis. RouGH-wINGED SwALLow.—Now known 
to breed. May 17, 1914, five heavily incubated eggs were found in 
a nest of pine needles and trash at end of 6-inch tunnel in ditch bank 
near Prattville. Tunnel about one foot below top of bank and about 
nineteen feet above bottom of ditch. May 21, 1916, near Prattville, six 
eggs (five nearly hatched and one, smaller than others, fresh) were dis- 
covered in nest. of pine and deciduous leaves at end of 20-inch tunnel in 
sandy bank near Pine Creek.
