NESTING OF THE PARULA WARBLER {COM- 

 FSOTHLYPIS AMERICANA) IN CAPE MAY 

 COUNTY, NEW JERSEY.^ 



BY MARK L. C. WILDE. 



Perhaps no other portion of the State of New Jersey is better 

 adapted as a breeding ground for the Parula Warbler than Cape 

 May County. Quite a number of its streams, including Dennis 

 Creek and tributaries, are dammed off to supply power to the 

 various saw and grist mills, thereby forming mill-ponds, and in 

 some cases these streams spread over a considerable area, owing 

 to the extreme shallowness of the valleys.
