197. [721.] Troglodytes aedon Vieill. House Wren.* Fig. 9. 



Rather rare summer resident. March 9 to September 16. The House 

 Wren was a rare summer resident and less common than T. beurickii in 

 1887 (B. W. E.). 



A nest of the House Wren was found April 25, 1903, in a tin can sit- 

 ting on a fence. The nest was just completed and contained no eggs 

 (C. G. L.). May 21, 1902, seven well-feathered young were found; two 

 days later these had flown (G. Hitze). 



The dates for 1901 would probably be more correctly attributed to 

 T. bewickii. The song was heard that year on February 21 (V. H. B.).
