  33. Myiarchus crinitus.- Common throughout the old
oak and birch woods which are in every 
way admirably suited for its requirements.
  34. Contopus virens.- Very common in the open oak & 
birch woods. Indeed I do not think I
have ever seen the bird elsewhere in such
numbers excepting near Stonybrook, Conn.
  35. Colaptes auratus.- Several heard "shouting" in 
the upland woods and three or four seen 
on the "Desert."
  36. Dryobates pubescens medianus.- Common throughout the
old woods but not so numerous as
one might expect it to be where the
conditions are so very favorable to
its requirements.
  37. Ceryle alcyon.- One seen at the pond behind
Mr. William Forbes's house.
  38. Colinus virgianus.- Four females heard whistling " bob-white"
and a pair of birds flushed.
  39. Circus hudsonius.- A fine old male came close about
the house several times daily beating
through some bushy hollows. We also
saw a female on the Desert.
