V. Winter Visitants. — Winter visitants are birds which may or 

 may not visit us during the winter. As a rule their presence depends 

 upon the severity of the winter. An unusually severe season some- 

 times forces boreal birds southward and they then may be found 

 in numbers south of the limits of their regular winter homes.

VI. Regular Transient Visitants. — The birds of this class are

 north of us, their winter homes are south of us, and we see them 

 only when they pass northward on their spring migration and 

 southward on their fall migration.
