CATALOGUE OF CANADIAN BIRDS. 653 
tree, hiding behind a branch, but, curiously enough, still singing. 
I approached under cover and on taking the bird found I had been 
fortunate enough to secure a specimen of D. kirtlandw in good 
plumage. On stepping the distance from the tree where I was 
standing to the tree on which the bird was singing when I first 
heard him, I found it to be 110 yards, which goes to show the power 
of his voice.” (J. Hughes-Samuel.) 
671. Pine Warbler. 
Dendroica vigorsu vigorsu (AuD.) Ripcw. 1885. 
Several seen on June 20th, and September 27th, 1902, on Sable 
island, N.S.; one taken, June 8th, 1904; one, May 28th, 1905, and 
several, September 30th in a northwest gale; one seen June 17th and 
several, September 29th, 1906; one seen, May 16th, 1907. (J. 
Boutelier.) Said to occur in New Brunswick by Dr. Adams. 
(Chamberlain.) A specimen was picked up on Haymarket square 
by master Ralph Finlay and communicated to me by Mrs. M. V. 
Laurence. (A. G. Leavitt.) Specimens have been taken in Quebec 
prior to 1889. (Dionne.) A scarce transient visitant at Montreal. I 
have shot specimens of this warbler on the spur of Mount Royal 
from September 12th to 26th. (Wvznile.) 
A rare spring migrant at Ottawa. (Ottawa Naturalist, Vol. V.) 
One taken by Mr. Taverner on April 30th, 1898, is the only record 
I have for either the Parry Sound or Muskoka district. (J. H. 
Fleming.) I found these birds quite abundant among the pines 
west of Toronto in 1894, the first arrivals were noted on the 21st 
April; on the 8th May, 1895, I took one specimen and on 2oth 
April, 1896, met another single bird; since these dates I have not 
met with the species, either on account of none having visited 
this district or more likely because the haunts in question have been 
denuded of the trees. (J. Hughes-Samuel.) A rather common 
species at Hamilton, Ont., where it raises its young every season. 
(MclIlwratth.) Rather rare both as a migrant and summer resident, 
though it may be found each year in a few pine woods around 
London, Ont. (W. E. Saunders.) A tolerably common summer 
resident to the north and east of Manitoba. (FE. T. Seton.) A 
tolerably common summer resident at Aweme, Manitoba; it arrives 
about May 15th and leaves about September 2nd. (Criddle.)
