ing one of the lenses I could give a splendid imitation 

 of the notes of the catbird, and often attracted them in 

 this way. 



It was a splendid place for birds and I am sorry 

 that at the time I was acquainted with so few species. 

 I feel pretty sure, however, that I have not entered 

 any dubious ones, as I have always made it a point to 

 write only a description when I could not conscienti- 

 ously give the exact name. I have weeded all such 

 birds out of the list. 



As I was always away from the middle of June un- 

 til the end of September, I have only a fragmentary 

 list of the autumn departure of the various species 

 and practically none at all of the arrival of those that 

 come from the North, — football being at that time the 

 all-absorbing topic.
