Breeding Notes. — Rare in the counties of Leeds, Renfrew, etc.

 Mount Royal near Montreal. {Rev. C. J. Young.) On June 20th, 

 1893, at Long lake, Manitoba, I found a nest and two eggs of this 

 bird. The nest was like a large wood pe wee's and saddled on to 

 the limb of a tree eight feet from the ground. (W. Raine.)

 that Mr. Reeks names Sayornis phaebe and also the same that Mr. 

 Turner referred to, and that Mr. Packard is in error in referring it 

 to Canto pus richardsonii. (Macoun.) 



Common summer resident in Nova Scotia. (Downs; Tufts.) Shot 

 in Brackley Point woods. Prince Edward island, August 22nd, 1888. 

 (Macoun.) Not common, though now and then met with in certain 

 localities on Prince Edward island. (Dwighi.) Common summer 

 resident in New Brunswick. (Chamberlain.) Tolerably common 

 summer resident at Scotch Lake, York county, N.B. Nests built 

 on horizontal hmbs from 10 to 50 feet from the ground. (W. H. 

 Moore.) Heard in the valley of the Restigouche, N.B. (Brittain & 

 Cox.) Summer resident in Quebec. (Dionne.) Common summer 

 resident around Montreal; breeds in Mount Royal park. (Wintle.)
