* Heard what I suppose to be the Pine war- 

 bler's song many times, birds always in tops of 

 pines, breast decidedly yellow, could not see wing 

 bars or back. Song a sweet trill, tremulous as the 

 field sparrow's, and soft, not strident like a chip- 

 py's trill. 



t Song begins a little like yellow warbler's, but 

 not so piercing, and ends with an abrupt little up- 

 ward quaver, quite unfamiliar.
