42 IsELY, Birds of Sedgwick Co., Kansas. [jan. 



Common spring migrant. Noted between May 4 and 17, 1910, nearly 

 every day, on Fairmount Hill and in the Cemetery. On May 17 I counted 

 82 of this species feeding on the ground in the cemetery. This was by 

 far the largest number that I have ever seen in any one day.
