 Dendroica striata (Forst). 

 Black-poll Warblek. 



Very common summer resident. 



The Black-poll Warbler frequents all the wooded region of Labrador 

 in summer and advances well to the borders of the Arctic zone taking 

 advantage of islands of the Hudsonian zone in the form of dwarfed 

 firs and spruces. Audubon says it arrives in southern Labrador from 

 the 1st to the 10th of June. Low found it on the upper Hamilton 

 River on May 31st. Spreadborough saw it at Fort George, James 

 Bay, on June 20th and he found it common throughout Ungava, where 

 he noted the last one at Fort Chimo on August 23d. Turner found it 

 breeding at Fort Chimo and Macoun notes two sets of eggs from this 

 point. 



We found the Black-poll Warbler common at Mary Harbor, St. 

 Lewis Inlet, also at Cartwright and Rigolet, and at Cape Charles; 

 that is, wherever we came in contact with the Hudsonian fauna. The 

 males were singing commonly. 



Dendroica blackburniae (Gmel.). 

 Blackburnian Warbler. 



Very rare summer resident in the southern part. 



The only record of this bird of the sub-Canadian and Transition 

 zone for Labrador is that of Audubon ('35, p. 208): "In Labrador 

 we saw several individuals of both sexes." 



Dendroica virens (Gmel.). 



Black-throated Green Warbler. 



Very rare summer resident in southern Labrador. 



Frazar records: "A bird of the year, which I killed at Esquimaux 

 Point on September the 4th, was all I saw of this species." Palmer 

 referring to this species says: "Two birds were taken at the Mingan 

 Islands."
