Mr. Cleaves recorded 3 male Red-winged Blackbirds 

 (Agelaius p. phceniceus) on Staten Island on March 1, and 4 

 Bluebirds on March 7. He also spoke of a Holboell's Grebe 

 (Colymbus holhcelli) shot at Prince's Bay, Staten Island, a short 

 time ago. He suspected that this species was not so rare 

 there as supposed.
