in summer, but usually quite common in the foothills in 

 winter. I have shot them in July, in Calaveras County, 

 with their crops full of pine nuts. 



Igo. E. L. Ballou. A migrant and resident. On 

 March 26 and 27, 1884, a flock seen; also during our 

 heavy snow storms, five weeks previously, from which I 

 infer that the storms and pigeons had some connection. 



Cape Foulweather. S. L. Wass. Resident. 



Willamette Valley. 0. B. Johnson. An abundant 

 summer resident. 



Cooper, 1860. Arrives at Columbia River in April. 



Suckley, 1860. I saw but one flock containing five 

 individuals, east of the Cascade Mountains. 



British Columbia. John Fannin. Tolerably com- 

 mon summer resident.

 Ifirst seen (two males); next seen April 12; May 4 com- 

 mon. Common in breeding season. 



17. Ectopistes migratorius (Linn.) PASSENGER PIGEON. 



Ridgway. Only a stray individual was met with by 

 us, and it cannot be considered as more than an occa- 

 sional straggler in the country west of the Rocky 

 Mountains.

 Mountains, Nevada, September 10, 1867. L. B.
