In adding to my collection a number of specimens of various genera and species received from Texas, I 



discovered many of those species procured by Dr. Townsend and others during their "journey across the 



Rocky Mountains," which induces me to believe that many of those species that visit the Columbia River, 



pass the winter in Texas. Figured and described in Audubon's American Ornithology.
