Report on Spring Migration for the Years 1922-24 



Since its organization in 1890, the D. V. O. C. has devoted 

 much of its attention to the study of bird migration, and since 

 the appearance of the first issue of Cassinia in 1900, a yearly re- 

 port on the spring migration in eastern Pennsylvania, southern 

 New Jersey and Delaware has been published, with notes on 

 unusual birds, nesting dates etc., covering other parts of the year. 

 Necessarily other ornithologists, not members of the Club, have 

 been enlisted in this work, and each year schedules furnished by 

 the Club for the purpose have been filled in and returned by from 

 20 to 80 observers. 



In the twenty-four years no less than 131 observers have made 

 returns. Of these the following have furnished records for twelve 

 years or more.
