Cotyle Serripennis—Bonap. 
Rough-winged Swallow. 
I have found this bird from Delaware to New 
York, and from the Atlantic to Minnesota. 
I found it breeding in Iowa in company with 
Cotyle Ripar.a. Eggs six in number. 
Progne Purpurea —Bore. 
Purple Martin. 
This bird was to me some years ago very 
abundant about Philadelphia, but in the last few 
years I found it very scarce. I found it very 
abundant in Iowa and farther west, breeding in 
hollow trees and stumps. 
Ampelis Garrulus—Linn. 
Wax Wing. 
I have found this bird very plenty in Iowa, in 
the Winter, and have known it to be shot in 
Maine. I have seen a specimen that was killed 
in West Philadelphia in the Winter of 1841. It 
was feeding with some cedar birds on the berries 
of the cedar trees. It is considered very rare. 
Most of tke rare birds have a locality where they 
may be found very plenty. 
Ampelis Cedrorum— Baird. 
Cedar Bird. 
The Cedar Bird is found over the country from 
New Jersey to Minnesota, and breeds in Iowa.
