 autumn but the most common woodland transient during the 

 following four years in autumn, and rare or absent in spring. 



Northern Parula Warbler (Compsothlypis americana usneae). 

 — Three females in the large flock, May 16, and a junior female in 

 the same woods October 16. An adult male on the river district 

 September 19. The local birds are referable to Ridgway's proposed 

 form ramaiinoB which was not accepted in the A. O. U. Check-List 

 and we revert to umece. 



Cape May Warbler {Dendroiea tigrina). — A male and female 

 in the large flock of May 16. In the same woods an adult male 

 was noted October 16 and another on the 17th. Two adult males 

 noted in the river district August 29. 



Yellow W'arbler (Dendroiea cestiva). — A single bird was seen 

 April 27 and the second May 2. The first females appeared May 9 

 when the species became common and established for the summer. 

 An adult male seen August 15 was the last for the year. 



Black-throated Blue Warbler (Dendroiea eoeruleseens). — 

 Two males and three females on the river district May 19. Four

 opening with a female August 29 and closing with two males and 

 two females October 17.

 district. Noted a female April 25 and a male and female on the 

 28th. Twenty-five counted May 1, in numbers about equally 

 divided as to sex. Only four females among the thirty May 8 

 but sexes about equally divided on other dates, including the fifteen 

 May 19, which were the last in spring. Not seen inland though I 

 expected to find a few in the large flock of May 16. Common, 

 both along the river and inland in autumn. Counted thirty 

 October 24, and they undoubtedly remained later.

 May 19 and 27, and one female May 29. Common inland. The
