104 Tur Witson BULLETIN—NO. To. 
111. (598) Passerina cyanea, Inpico Bunrinc.—This species 
evidently did not breed on the island, as it was not seen until Sep- 
tember 9. Two birds were seen on that date, and this was the 
only record secured. 
112. (GO8) Piranga erythromelas. SCARLET TANAGER.—The 
keepers informed us that this bird is common during the spring 
migration in May. It was not seen by the writer. 
113. (611) Proyne subis subis. PurPLeE Martin——On August 
16, birds of this species were seen flying about over the light- 
house. It apparently did not breed on the island, although a com- 
mon breeder at Caseville and Bayport, and no doubt about the 
towns on the west shore. The ones seen were doubtless birds from 
one of these places, that had come out to feed over the bay. 
114. (612) Petrochelidon lunifrons lunifrons. CrLrr SwaLLow. 
—The cliff swallew did not breed on the island, but a few were 
seen flying about the light-house clearing on August 17. These 
were the only ones seen and may have been migrating. 
115. (613) Hirundo erythrogastra. Barn Swatitow.—This spe- 
cies was a rare breeder on the island. One pair was seen on 
August 16 and subsequently, that had a nest in the top of a partly 
underground chicken house. The keepers said that another pair 
tried to build inside of the boat house, but after several succes- 
sive nests had been destroyed they gave up the attempt and left. 
On August 20, 2 flock of about thirty came to the island. They 
fed and rested for five days and then passed on. The swallows 
that bred on the island did not migrate with this flock, but dis- 
appeared two days later. 
116. (G19) Bombyecilla cedrorum. CEDAR WAXWING.—This  spe- 
cies bred on the island and was not rare, being seen nearly every 
day. Young birds just able to fly were observed on August 17, 
and many in the immature plumage were seen until September 
29, when the last birds were noted. 
117. (621) Lanius borealis. NorruerN SHRIKE.—Only one of 
these birds, an adult female, was seen, October 7. It was in the 
top of a tall Norway pine near the light-house. 
118. (624) Vireosylva olivacea, Rep-zyEp Vireo.—The red-eyed 
vireo bred on the island, and was seen from August 17 to Septem- 
ber 28. A nest was found in a tree near the light-house and young 
and immature birds were common. 
119. (627) Vireosylva gilva gilva. WaArBLING YVrirREO.—This  vi- 
reo probably bred on the island, but not so commonly as the pre- 
ceding species. It was first seen on August 17, and but a few 
times afterward, never becoming common.
