GRAY-CHEEKED THRUSH 197 



in. GRAY-CHEEKED THRUSH 



Hylocichla alicia 



Several records of Gray-cheeked Thrushes, 

 or Alice's Thrushes, which have been well 

 seen, have been obtained, beginning in 

 1900, when one was present on May 15 and 

 two others came on May 18 and continued 

 their stay during seven days through an 

 easterly storm. In 1901 one bird was pre- 

 sent on May 22 ; in 1903 one was seen on 

 May 20 ; in 1904 the visitant came on May 

 23; and in 1905 one on May 22, followed 

 by another on May 25 which remained to 

 the second day. In 1908 a Gray-cheeked 

 Thrush arrived in the Garden on May 17; 

 two others came on May 24 ; and these were 

 followed by one other on May 27 which 

 remained over another day. 



These records show that the Gray- 

 cheeked Thrush arrives later than the other 

 thrushes except Bicknell's, and has usually 

 made but one day's stay.
