BIRD’ NOTES FROM PINEHURST, NORTE 
CAROLINA. 
BY C. J. PENNOCK. 
Following is a summary cf my notes taken at Pinehurst, 
Moore County, N. C., during a stay there from February 9, 
to March 17, 1910. 
This attractive winter resort settlement is about seventy- 
five miles south of Raleigh, forty miles from the South Caro- 
lina state line, and nearly one hundred miles north-west from 
Wilmington, at or near the sea coast. The elevation is about 
650 feet above sea level and is in the Long Leaf Pine (P. 
tacda) district. Until within twenty years or so turpentine 
making was the principal industry of the region. With the 
building of a railroad the timber has been largely cut off, and 
later, devastating fires of frequent recurrence have made a 
most desolate looking country of much of the surrounding re- 
gion. The aspect is rolling and many small streams are 
present. The soil is sandy, and excepting in few instances 
agricultural improvement has made slight progress. Pinus 
teda, P. echinata, White Oak (Q. alba), Post Oak (Q. obtusi- 
loba), Black Jack (Q. nigra) on the higher lands, and Sweet- 
Gum (Liquidambar styraciflua), Black-Gum (Nyssa multi- 
flora and N. uniflora), Magnolia glauce and Tulip-trees
