General Distribution. Eastern United States; north to New 

 York; west nearly to the Plains. 



Summer Range. Principally the valley of the Ohio River ; thence 

 east to Virginia (Natural Bridge), West Virginia (White Sulphur 

 Springs), Maryland (Baltimore), Delaware (Choptank River), Penn- 

 sylvania (Williamsport, East Penn.), and central New York (Auburn, 

 Baldwinsville). It has occurred casually in New Jersey (Boonton, 

 September 1887), southeastern New York (West Point, May 17, 1875; 

 New York City, May 5, 1886), Connecticut (Suffield, June 12, 1875, 

 Seymour, May 10, 1888), and Rhode Island (Providence, May 22,

 of the Ohio valley, it ranges to southern Ontario (Plover Mills), 

 southern Michigan, (Lansing, Detroit), southern Wisconsin (Lake 

 Koshkonong, Milwaukee, Racine, Two Rivers), and southern Min- 

 nesota (Lanesboro) ; west to eastern Nebraska (Omaha), eastern 

 Kansas (Onaga), and eastern Texas (Texarkana) ; accidental at

 limits of its regular breeding range are the mountains of Virginia 

 and Tennessee ; but it has been known to breed irregularly at Greens- 

 boro, Ala., Franklin and St. Tammany Parishes, La., and in the Creek 

 and Cherokee Nations, Okla.
