22. Otocoris alpestris subsp.? — Prairie (?) Horned Lark. — 

 First seen, March 24 (1); next seen, March 25; common, March 

 27; tolerably common; last seen, April 18. Although Horned 

 Larks were observed as tra nsients only, all my observations of 

 them in the field led me to believe them to be Prairie Horned 

 Larks, 0. a. praticola. I t is possible that their breeding-grounds 

 were in some of the great pasture areas in Antigonish County, 

 some miles from Antigonish town. 



23. Dolichonyx oryzivorus. — Bobolink. — First seen. May 16 

 (1); next seen. May 18; common. May 21; common. 



24. Agelaius phoeniceus phoeniceus. — Red-winged Black- 

 bird. — First seen, May 2 (1); next seen, May 23; rare summer 

 resident; breeds. Probably not an accurate record of first 

 arrival. An account of my discovery of a nest and eggs of this 

 species in a swamp near the mouth of Antigonish Harbor has 

 been published in The Auk'. Vol. XXXI. No. 4, pp. 537-538, 

 October. 1914.
