Ipswich on July 17, 1869. Winters in large numbers in 
Florida, and I was assured, upon good authority, that it 
remained during the summer, but the nest has never been 
found! How they propagated was a mystery to those un- 
acquainted with its northern migration.

wit, “ Goose-Bird,” ~ Black-tail,” “‘Spot-neck.” Very rare 
during the migrations.
