184 BIRDS OF BERMUDA. 
Length, 5.50; wing, 3.00; tail, 2.40. 
Hab.—Eastern United States to the Lower Missouri, north to Canada 
and New Brunswick, but not to Labrador. Not recorded in West Indies, 
except Bahamas. Bermuda. (Coues.) 
Has occurred in considerable numbers. A good many occurred on 
September 27, 1849, departing again in a few days. Several were cap- 
tured outside the lantern of the light-house in the dark and rainy night 
of the 5th September, 1850. On October 15, 1850, Colonel Drummond 
obtained specimens from a large flock, which he observed coming in 
from the sea and settling on some trees within the keep at Ireland 
Island. Mr. Bartram has two specimens, one of which (a male in spring 
plumage) was shot near his house and brought to him while I was pay- 
ing him a visit on March 16, 1875. The species would seem, therefore, 
to visit the islands on both migrations. 
Under date 4th February, 1878, Mr. Bartram writes tome: ‘One dark 
stormy night last October, a Pine-creeping Warbler flew into the mu- 
seum; it is now alive and well, and eats bread and milk.”

Hab.—¥astern Province of North America; west to Platte and Yel- 
lowstone, thence to Alaska; winters sparingly in Florida and along the 
Gulf coast; Mazatlan, West Indies; Mexico; Central America (Coues). 
I shot the first recorded specimen on the edge of Devonshire Swamp, 
on the 19th October, 1874. This brought to light another, shot in 
the autumn of 1873, and set up in a case with Blue and Red Birds by 
Gibbs, an old soldier of the Fifty-third Regiment, and an excellent tax- 
idermist, in the service of. Lieutenant Johnston, Royal Engineers. I 
afterwards identified two others, killed a few years ago, in Mr. Bartram’s 
possession. The species was numerous in the autumn of 1874, in and 
near Devonshire Swamp, and I procured specimens on the 24th October
