570 Lake Maxinkuckee, Physical and Biological Survey 



148. BAY-BREASTED WARBLER 



DENDROICA CASTANEA (Wilson) 



Probably not rare during the migrations. Our only records are 

 September 30, 1900, when several were seen near Belong, and Sep- 

 tember 29, 1907, when one or more were noted near the birch 

 grove in Walley's woods. 



149. BLACK-POLL WARBLER 



DENDROICA STRIATA (J. R. Forster) 



Probably a common spring and fall migrant. Our only rec- 

 ords, however, are September 25 and October 1, 1913, on each of 

 which dates several were seen feeding among the poplars on Long 



Point. 



150. BLACKBURNIAN WARBLER 



DENDROICA FUSCA (Muller) 



The only example seen by us at the lake was a fine male in per- 

 fect plumage on Long Point, October 1, 1913. As it is a rather 

 common spring and fall migrant in Indiana it is probably not 

 uncommon about the lake during the migrations. 



151. BLACK-THROATED GREEN WARBLER 



DENDROICA VIRENS (Gmelin) 



Probably a common migrant, most abundant in October. In 

 1900 it was noted October 2, 3, 5, 6, and 12 ; in 1906, on October 

 4, 5, 6, and 7; and in 1913, on September 14, 15, 17 to 20, and 

 October 1 ; usually quite abundant. 



152. PALM WARBLER 



DENDROICA PALMARUM (Gmelin) 



Apparently rare ; oui' only records are October 7, 1899, and Sep- 

 tember 13, 1913, when several were seen along the fence rows 

 at the northwest edge of Lost Lake. 



153. OVEN-BIRD 



SEIURUS AUROCAPILLUS (Linnaeus) 



Not common ; one seen in Farrar's woods Septembeer 13, 1907. 

 154. MARYLAND YELLOW-THROAT 



GEOTHLYPIS TRICHAS (Linnaeus) 



One of the most common summer residents, breeding in the 

 grass at the edges of the marshes. Noted July 8 to October 4,
