19H J General Notes. 493 



The following additional species have been noted since the publication 

 in 'The Auk' (Vol. XIX, No. 2, April, 1902, pp. 131-141) of the ' List of 

 Land Birds of Seattle ' and can therefore be added thereto. The numbers 

 are a continuation of the original List. 



113. Melopelia asiatica. White-winged Dove. — One specimen, 

 now in my collection, a female taken Nov. 11, 1907, at Puyallup, Wash., 

 25 miles south of Seattle, by J. H. Bowles of Tacoma. This may be 

 regarded as accidental and is so noted in the A. O. U. Check-List. 



114. Accipiter cooperi. Cooper's Hawk. — Rare summer resident. 

 Breeds. Observed a number of times: August, 1908, May 22, 1909, 

 May 7, 1911. 



115. Astur atricapillus striatulus. Western Goshawk. — Rare. 

 Have a fine specimen, an adult male, taken east of the city, April 27, 1909. 



116. Strix occidentalis caurina. Northern Spotted Owl.- 

 Probably not uncommon, but owing to the extent and density of our 

 forests is hard of observation. An adult female in my collection bears 

 date of Oct. 27, 1907, taken near Seattle. 



117. Loxia leucoptera. White-winged Crossbill. — Numbers of 

 this species, associating with L. curvirostra minor, were observed in the 

 vicinity of this city from December, 1908, until the following April (1909), 

 but although carefully watched for since, I have been unable to get other 

 records. Must be regarded as an irregular winter visitant. 



118. Junco hyemalis hyemalis. Slate-colored Junco. — On Feb. 

 4, 1909, J. H. Bowles of Tacoma took an adult male of this species which 

 he kindly presented to me. 



119. Melospiza lincolni striata. Forbush's Sparrow. — An adult 

 male, taken near Tacoma April 14, 1908, by J. H. Bowles is the only record 

 of the species for this immediate vicinity. 



120. Passerella iliaca fuliginosa. Sooty Fox Sparrow. — One 

 specimen, an adult male, taken by J. H. Bowles April 2, 1909, in Tacoma. 



121. Passerella iliaca insularis. Kadiak Fox Sparrow.— An 

 adult female taken by J. H. Bowles, Feb. 13, 1909, near Seattle (Kirkland, 

 Wash.). 



Undoubtedly this and the preceding species occur irregularly during 

 the spring and fall migrations and may be winter residents to some extent, 

 and there is a possibility that fuliginosa may breed in this district as it is 

 known to do so along the coast of N. W. Washington. 



122. Tachycineta thalassina lepida. Northern Violet-green 

 Swallow. — Was inadvertently omitted from the original list. An 

 abundant summer resident, in and about the city, breeding everywhere 

 in suitable locations. 



123. Bombycilla garrula. Bohemian Waxwing. — On the morning 

 of Dec. 4, 1910, a most beautiful Bohemian Waxwing in high plumage 

 was observed feeding on the berries of a mountain ash tree in my front 

 yard. This bird remained on the premises until 5 p. m., but returned the 

 following day at 7:45 a. m. and stayed continuously in the yard until
