Kansas southward. It was noted by only two of our observers. At 
Sav Angelo, Tex., an immense flock was-seen during the winter, and 
at Ellis, Kans., a few were seen during migration. Previously it was 
recorded as an abundant winter visitor at Boerne, Tex. (Brown). 
Most of the spring movement of this species occurs in the latter part of 
February and in March. It was found in Texas as far east as Gaines- 
ville, and has also occurred accidentally in Illinois opposite Dubuque, 
Iowa. It was also probably seen in the fall of 1883 at Caddo, Ind. 
Ter., but was not shot, hence the identification is not complete. In the 
fall of 1884, at San Angelo, Tex., the Rocky Mountain Bluebird first 
appeared October 8. Mr. Peters writes that at Bonham, Tex., he saw 
these birds for three or four winters in succession, the last time being in 
1880.
