^'"^i^io^"] Warren Bird Notes from Chaffee Co., Col. 151 



112. Icteria virens longicauda. Long-tailed Chat.^ Frey took this 

 species in 1908. 



113. Wilsonia pusilla pileolata. Pileolated Warbler. — Arrives 

 about the middle of IMay, and Frey says it is a common summer resident, 

 dividing with the Yellow Warbler and the Yellowthroat the honor of being 

 the most abundant of the warblers. 



114. Setophaga ruticilla. Redstart. — Frey took one, and saw an- 

 other, May 17, 1908; these are all he has seen. 



115. Anthus rubescens. Pipit. — Sometimes abundant in migration. 



116. Cinclus mexicanus unicolor. Water Ousel. — ^ Not uncommon 

 along the streams; resident, and a breeder. 



117. Oroscoptes montanus. Sage Thrasher. — Frey has taken it in 

 the spring. I see no reason why it should not be a breeder in the region. 



118. Mimus polyglottos leucopterus. Western Mockingbird. — A 

 rare visitor in spring and summer. 



119. Dumetella carolinensis. Catbird. — A summer resident, coming 

 about the middle of May; apparently not very common. 



120. Salpinctes obsoletus. Rock Wren. — A common summer resident 

 and breeder. 



121. Troglodytes aedon parkmani. Western House Wren. — A 

 common summer resident, arriving about the first of May. 



122. Certhia familiaris montana. Rocky Mountain Creeper. — 

 Frey took one in February, 1909. Probably not an uncommon resident. 



123. Sitta carolinensis nelsoni. Rocky Mountain Nuthatch. — A 

 rather common resident. 



124. Penthestes gambeli. Mountain Chickadee. — A common resi- 

 dent. 



125. Psaltriparus plumbeus. Lead-colored Bushtit. — Frey took 

 this species at Salida. Dec. 14, 1908. 



126. Myadestes townsendi. Townsend's Solitaire. — Not uncom- 

 mon, at least in winter. Salida is rather low for a breeding station for this 

 bird, though one or two nests have been found at a much lower elevation 

 in Colorado. 



127. Hylocichla ustulata swainsoni. Olive-backed Thrush. — Frey 

 has seen but few near Salida. 



128. Hylocichla guttata. Al.vska Hermit Thrush.— Seen only in the 

 migrations. Frey found these birds exceedingly abundant after a severe 

 storm which struck Salida, May 3, 1908. 



129. Planesticus migratorius propinquus. Western Robin. — A com- 

 mon summer resident and breeder, and a few remain during the milder 

 winters. The spring migration begins between the first and middle of 

 March. 



130. Sialia mexicana bairdi. Chestnut-backed Bluebird. — Arrives 

 early in March, but does not seem to remain to breed. 



131. Sialia currucoides. Mountain Bluebird. — A common summer 

 resident and breeder, arriving about the first of March.
