PASSERES — VIREONID^. 169 



duped vireo seems to offer no protest to this persistent im- 

 position. The birds are not confined to the woods, but fre- 

 quently nest in our city parks. The noise of traffic may 

 almost completely drown the cheerful voice, but it cannot 

 stop it. 



This vireo reaches the lake shore about the 23d of April 

 and departs about the 25th of October. 



231. (626.) Vireo philadelphicus (Cass.). 67. 



Philadelphia Vireo. 



Synonyms'. Vireosylvia philadelphica. 



Brotherly Love Vireo, Brotherly Love Greenlet. 

 Baird, P. R. R. Report, IX, 1858, 335. 



This vireo seems to be irregular as a migrant in Ohio. I 

 have never found it in Lorain county, nor elsewhere in the 

 state. If it were even fairly common it could hardly have 

 escaped so many observers entirely. 



Rev. Mr. Henninger found it late in April and again late 

 in September, in southern Ohio. 



232. (627.) Vireo gilvus (Vieill.). 68. 



Warbling Vireo. 



Synonyms: Vireosylvia gilva, Muscicapa gilva. 



Warbling Greenlet, Warbling Flycatcher. 

 Kirtland, Ohio Geol. Surv., 1838, 163, ISO. 



This is the vireo which lives in the shade trees and parks 

 all summer. It is almost abundant over the entire state. 

 The peculiar rolling song and rasping scolding notes must 

 be familiar to all. They may be heard just outside your door 

 at almost any time from May to August. 



This vireo seems to travel with the Red-eyed Vireo, some- 

 times arriving a day or two earlier. Southern Ohio dates 

 of arrival range from April 19 to May 9, while Lorain coun- 

 ty arrivals range from April 28 to May 1. They have left the 

 lake shore by September 15, but tarry a month longer in the 

 southern counties.
