184 BIRDS OF THE NEW YORK CITY REGION 



ORIENT. Common transient, rare in winter; March 1 to 

 May 3; August 2 to December. 



MASTIC. Uncommon permanent resident, common as a 

 spring transient. 



LONG BEACH. Very rare on migration; September 14, 1920 

 (Janvrin); December 12, 1918 (E. P. Bicknell). 

 New York State. Now extirpated as a summer resident except 

 possibly in northern Westchester County. Rare in winter. 



CENTRAL PARK. Uncommon but regular transient, occur- 

 ring every year both spring and fall; April 8, 1909 (Anne A. 

 Crolius) to May 16, 1917 (Janvrin); August 15, 1913 (Griscom) 

 to December 25, 1906 (Rogers); Februarys, 1909 (Griscom). 



BRONX REGION. Formerly a summer resident, not found 

 nesting since 1916; a common transient, April 23, 1916 (L. 

 N. Nichols) to May 27, 1919 (L. N. Nichols); September 21, 

 1919 (L. N. Nichols) to November 3, 1916 (E. G. Nichols). 

 These dates are very poor; no recent winter records. 

 New Jersey. An uncommon summer resident throughout the 

 area, but now rare or absent near the City; a common transient; 

 rare in winter. 



ENGLEWOOD REGION. Common transient, rare in winter; 

 March 21, 1915 (Rogers) to May 18, 1919 (Griscom); August 

 3, 1912 (Weber) to November 6, 1915 (R. S. Lemmon). Not 

 positively known to nest in recent years, but its breeding in the 

 northern section of the Region is suspected and is probable. 



COOPER'S HAWK (Accipiter cooper i) 



Cooper's Hawk must be regarded as a fairly common 

 summer resident for a Hawk in the wilder parts of our terri- 

 tory, and is unquestionably more numerous at this season 

 than the Sharp-shinned. As a transient it is much less com- 

 mon, however, and is equally rare in winter. Near New 

 York City the observer will see at least ten times as many 

 of the smaller species during the year. The extreme eastern 

 end of Long Island is, however, an exception to this state- 

 ment. On Gardiner's Island I should consider this species 

 a common transient in the fall. 



Long Island. Fairly common summer, occasional permanent 

 resident.
