99. Dendroica maculosa. Magnolia Warbler. — Fairly numerous 

 migrant and breeder; the latter in high parts only. May 18 (1901) to 

 Oct. 19 (1902). Song : irree deree' di^ not so loud as that of D. cceriilesceus. 



100. Dendroica rara. Cerulean Warbler. — Of about the same 

 frequency as the preceding species, only they are much more in evidence 

 during the spring migration and breed as low as Cumberland. This 

 species seems to be extending its breeding area. I found them numerous 

 near here June 19, 1903, when their song — ree, ree, reer (last note high) 

 — could be heard frequently. They seem to disappear, however, as soon 

 as their young can fly away. Dates: May 2 (1902) to July 19 (1901, 

 Accident). 



loi. Dendroica pensylvanica. Chestnut-sided Warbler. — Seems 

 to frequent the same places as the Golden-winged Warbler, but is much 

 more common over the whole region, breeding from 2000 feet up. It 

 stays in low thickets of oak, laurel, locust, etc. Dates: May 2 (1902) to 

 Sept. 21 (1901). 



102. Dendroica blackburniae. Blackburn i an Warbler. — Com- 

 mon migrant and breeder in higher parts ; fall migration seems to be 

 chiefly of birds of the year. May 3 (1902) to Sept. 24 (1900). 



103. Dendroica virens. Black-throated Green Warbler. — This 

 apparently' inseparable companion of D. ccerulescetis is generally to be 

 seen in the same places and numbers and at the same time as that species, 

 only it frequents the trees rather than underbrush. April 20, 1903, I saw 

 and heard it on Negro Mountain, near Accident, where there was yet no 

 sign of opening vegetation, whereas here at Cumberland, I saw none till 

 May. My latest date for it is Oct. 19. 



104. Dendroica vigorsii. Pine Warbler. — Very common in migra- 

 tion, especially the young in fall. It nests very sparingly. Dates : 

 March 20 (1903) to Oct. 19 (1900). 



105. Dendroica discolor. Prairie Warbler. — Common breeder in 

 low land, not in high. Its queer note can be heard from May 2 ; after the 

 end of June it is no longer in evidence. 



106. Seiurus aurocapillus. Ovenbird. — One of the most common 

 birds in low parts ; not nearly so common in higher parts. May i (1900) 

 to Sept. 29 (1899). 



107. Seiurus noveboracensis. Water-Thrush. — I have so far found 

 only one in migration (May 16, 1903) and one in its breeding places in 

 high ground (July 17, 1903), but Mr. Preble reports it fairly common 

 about Finzel, June, 1899, when everj' stream had a pair or two. 



108. Seiurus motacilla. Louisiana Water-Thrush. — Rather com- 

 mon throughout the range; more so in the Carolinian parts of it. April 

 7 (1900) to July 30 (1902). After the end of July they are not to be seen. 



109. Geothlypis trichas. Maryland Yellow-throat. — Perhaps 

 the most abundant warbler here, even in the high alder and sphagnum 

 swamps. April 26 to Sept 12 (1902). 



110. Icteria virens. Yellow-breasted Chat. — Common in scrubby
