none from western Io^Ya. On May 14 I observed' one in a cherry 

 tree on the College campus and was able to make a positive iden- 

 tification. On the following day I was called to the ofiice of Mr. 

 Peters to see a captive bird which had been picked up from the 

 street under some wires. It proved to be a male Cape May Warb- 

 ler. As it had apparently recovered from any shock or injury Mr. 

 Peters released it. 



15. Chestnut-sided Warbler (Dendroica pensylvanica) . — I do not 

 get to see t'his; species more than once or twice in a season. I noted 

 it in 1909 and 1910, but missed it entirely in 1911 and 1912. 



16. Nashville Warbler (Vermivora r. ruhricapilla) . — I have no 

 other records of this species except those of this season. 



17. Bay-breasted Warbler (Dendroica castanea). — The only pre- 

 vious record of mine is of June 4, 1910, on the College campus. 

 This year Miss Pearl Woodford told me of seeing one at Sergeant 

 Bluff on May 10. On the 14th Mr. Arthur Lindsey saw two on the 

 campus ; on the 15th I saw one ; and on the 18th one was reported 

 to me by Paul Chipperfleld. 



18. Louisiana Water-Thrush {Seiurus motacilla). — While only a 

 few records appear in the table, it seems to be the more common 

 of the two Water-Thrushes. 



19. Yellow-breasted Chat (Icteria v. virens). — Not by any means 

 common from year to year. This year my two records are probably 

 of the same bird, or of a pair.
