Kansas southward. It was noted by only two of bur observers. At 

 Sau Angelo, Tex., au immense flock was seen during the winter, and 

 at Ellis, Kaus., 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 Bocky 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.
