112. (400) ARCTIC THREE-TOED WOODPECKER 



A rare winter visitant arriving from the north very 

 late in September and during October. It remains till 

 early spring. My first study of one was on October 6. 



113. (394c) DOWNY WOODPECKER 



A permanent resident; more abundant in the spring 

 and autumn. A visitor at feeding places within the city 

 limits during the winter. Its drumming is heard in the 

 mating season; it utters a shrill cry with a rapid falling 

 inflection. 



114. (393) HAIRY WOODPECKER 



A permanent resident ; not as common as the preceding 

 species, being seen more in wooded districts where its 

 young is reared. During the seasons of migration it may 

 be seen nearer the city. In winter it often comes to the 

 feeding stations of my friends living in the suburbs. 

 Its note resembles the Downy's but is somewhat heavier.

 FAMILY KINGFISHERS 



115. (390) BELTED KINGFISHER 



A summer resident arriving the first of April and 

 remaining into late autumn. My latest date is October 

 17; stragglers have been reported in the winter months. 

 Several pairs nest on the banks of various streams. 

 Their "watchman's rattle" as they fly calls attention to 

 them. 



FAMILY CUCKOOS 



116. (388) BLACK-BILLED CUCKOO 



A summer resident. Arrives the middle of May and 

 departs in October. I heard one in an orchard October 6. 

 Cuckoos pick the hairy caterpillars out of their web-like 

 nests for food.
