the Louisiana, was heard scolding. Near the lake shore, at seven hun- 

 dred feet, were the Yellow Warbler and Yellow-breasted Chat. 



On the east side of Whaley's Lake, opposite Mulkin's Hill, where a 

 number of hemlocks grow, the Black-throated Blue and Black-throated 

 Green Warblers were found. These two species were, however, much more 

 common in Turkey Hollow, in the north-eastern part of the county, and 

 were usually met with at an altitude of about eight hundred to a thousand 

 feet, the Black-throated Green only when there were plenty of hemlocks 

 about. 



In the Harlem Valley, between Pawling and Wingdale, on the banks 

 of Swamp River, less than five hundred feet above sea level, a Brown 

 Creeper was found singing both on June 27 and July 11. 



On top of the Niggerbush, mentioned above, no less than five Hermit 

 Thrushes were found singing. 



The following species have therefore been added to out list of probable 

 breeding species in this county: 



Bald Eagle, one pair and one individual. 



Blue-winged Warbler, one male and one fledged young. 



Brewster's Warbler, one male. 



Nashville Warbler, four males and one female. 



Black-throated Blue Warbler, fifteen males, several females and young. 



Black-throated Green Warbler, twelve males. 



Canada Warbler, twelve males and several females. 



Brown Creeper, one male. 



Hermit Thrush, five males.

Bird Notes from Collins, N. Y.— A male Cerulean Warbler (Den- 

 droica cerulea) appeared here on May 16, 1920, the first one to be recorded 

 for seven years. 



During February two Northern Pilated Woodpeckers {Phloeotomus 

 pileatus abieticola) visited the hospital woods, the first record for the 

 species. White-winged Crossbills (Loxia leucoptera) were present during 

 February and until March 3. Cardinals (Cardinalis c. cardinalis) con- 

 tinue to be seen every year on the Cattaraugus Reservation, seven being 

 the greatest number observed in a single season. 



A female Red-bellied Woodpecker (Centurus carolinus) was recorded 

 May 9, the first since the winter of 1916-17, when one was reported two 

 miles from here. 



There was at no time a great wave of migration during the spring and 

 many species usually seen were absent or extremely scarce. — Dr.
