SPARROWS AND FINCHES. 397 



447. MACGILLIVARY SEASIDE 

 SPARROW. 



Differs from last in being darker, back 

 more distinctly streaked with black and 

 streakings beneath broader. From Charles- 

 ton, S. E. to eastern Fla.; breeding on Anas- 

 tasia Island; in winter along Gulf coast to La. 



448. SCOTT SEASIDE SPARROW. 



Differs from last in having no prom- 

 inent streakings above, grayer above, more 

 streakings below often on throat. Breeds 

 in western Fla. from Tarpon Springs to 

 Cedar Keys. Song, four notes, the first two 

 low and quickly uttered with a distinct 

 articulation, the last two more connected, 

 more prolonged with a decided accent, thus 

 the song somewhat resembles that of a Red- 

 winged Blackbird, and the bird spreads his 

 wings, bows his head, and ruffles his feathers 

 much as does the Red-wing: song given as 

 bird sits low in grass.
