2. From the low intervale lands nearly to the second mile of the carriage 

 road T. a. pallasii outnumbers T. u. svjainsonii. 



3. From the last point to 3000 feet altitude T. 11. srvaitisoniiwas, the only 

 one seen in any numbers. 



4. From 3500 feet to the limit of stunted firs and spruces, T. a. bicknelli 

 is the most abundant. 



46. Turdus aonalaschkae pallasii. Hermit Thrush. — Saw nothing of 

 the bird except on the way up the mountain by the carriage road. It 

 was common as far as the second mile post, but none were seen beyond 

 with the exception of a single specimen seen at an elevation of 3300 feet. 



47. Merula migratoria. American Robin. — On July 12, 1S86, a pair 

 were seen at an altitude of 50S0 feet on the Crawford Bridle Path. They 

 may have been stragglers from the valley below, but as it was not during 

 the migration, and there had been no storm for several weeks, it seems 

 more likely that they had nested in some stunted firs and spruces on a 

 southern slope near by. No others were seen.
