THE YOUNG OF THE RED-SHOULDERED HAWK 

 {BUTBO L1NEATUS). 



BY FRED. H. KENNARD. 1 



On May 26, 1SS9, I found two young birds of this species 

 in a nest in a pine in West Roxbury, Mass. They were covered 

 with down, and I judged them to be somewhere between two 

 and three weeks old. I took one of them, the larger one, and 

 on May 31, just five days later, I returned and took the other. 

 The first one had his primaries, secondaries, tertiaries and 



Read before the Nuttall Ornithological Club, April 2, 1894.
