parallel. (Coues.) Not an uncommon summer resident in the 
wooded parts of Manitoba, apparently breeding on Duck moun- 
tain. One seen near the eastern end of Great Slave Lake July 20, 
1907. (E. T. Seton.) Common during migration at Aweme, Man.; 
possibly breeds. (Criddle.) Noted in Manitoba only as a migrant 
of which it is one of the most abundant. (Atkinson.) Abundant 
in the streets of Winnipeg, May 27, 1903; near Red Deer, Alta., it 
is the most abundant of all breeding warblers except the yellow. 
W. E. Saunders.) 
This is a common migrant at Indian Head, Sask., and very likely 
breeds; first seen May 31st, and soon became common in willow 
thickets where it remained to June 15th, when all disappeared ; 
first seen at Medicine Hat, Sask., May 18th, 1894; others were 
seen afterwards, but they were never numerous; a few seen on 
Old Wives creek, Sask., late in May, 1895; a common breeding 
species at Banff, Rocky mountains, in the summer of 1891 ; common 
in willow thickets from the mouth of Slave river to Peace River 
Landing, lat. 56° 15’ in June, 1903; first seen on May 22nd, 1897, 
at Edmonton, Alta., tolerably common along the creeks by the 
28th; no doubt they breed here; common from Edmonton to the 
Athabaska pass in willow thickets in low grounds and along streams 
in June, 1898; common in the foothills south of Calgary. (Spread- 
borough.) On May 29th, 1905, I saw a bird within ro feet of me 
in thei Maple creek, Sask., timber which I was quite sure was a 
Tennessee warbler, but none were collected. (A.C. Bent.) Com- 
mon at the Grand rapids of the Saskatchewan, where it doubtless 
breeds. (Nutting.) One of the most abundant birds between 
Athabaska Landing and Lesser Slave river; first noted May 3oth; 
common down the Athabaska river to Fort McMurray, lat. 56° 40’; 
common up the Clearwater river and at the north end of Methye 
portage; common between Methye lake and Isle a la Crosse lake; 
last seen August roth. (/. WM. Macoun.) One specimen only was 
procured at Cumberland House, on the banks of the Saskatchewan, 
in the latter end of May. (Richardson.) North to Fort Simpson 
on the Mackenzie river. (Ross.) I have a nest and four eggs of 
this bird collected at Fort Saskatchewan near Edmonton, Alta., 
on June 12th, 1899, by Mr. J. Callaghan; nest in a wiNow two feet 
from the ground. (W. Raine.) This was a common breeder at 
150-Mile House, B.C., where its sharp insistent song was to be heard
