32. Dendroica blackburniae.- [male] juv. [juvenile] with pale yellow throat in big elm, front
of farm house, September 5 [September 5, 1913]; [male] ad. [adult] with orange throat in pines 
on Ball's Hill, September 6 [September 6, 1913]; [male] juv. [juvenile] in line of tall oaks near our
peach orchard and [female] juv. [juvenile] in gray birches in Run, September 24 [September 24, 1913].
All these birds were in company with Warblers of other kinds.

33. Dendroica virens. - August 26 - October 5. Present in normal numbers
frequenting not only white & pitch pine woods but also - and
almost, if not quite, as constantly & numerously - the tops
of the big elms standing close about our farm buildings while
I occasionally saw them in apple trees in the orchard. Amid
such cultivated surroundings, as well as in the gray birches
in Birch Field to which they resorted freely, they were usually
seen in company with other Warblers of various kinds but
in Pine Woods they were not unlikely to be found apart by
themselves in little flocks containing anywhere from 3 or 4 to 7 or 8
birds each & perhaps including an adult [male] with full black throat.
I did not hear any of them sing this autumn.

34. Dendrioca vigorsii. - Less in evidence than usual. A [male] seen on
Ball's Hill, August 26 [August 26, 1913]; another heard singing (the full song, given
only once, however) in the apple orchard at the Farm, October 1 [October 1, 1913];
a [female] feeding in gray birches in Birch Field, with D. striata et
coronata [Dendroica striata et coronata], October 5 [October 5, 1913]; and an imperfectly seen & not quite 
certainly identified bird, closely pursued by a Shrike through
the pines on Green Hill, November 2 [November 2, 1913].

35. Dendroica palmarum.-  On September 24 [September 24, 1913] S. O. Dexter [Smith Owen Dexter] & I found
a typical bird (showing almost no trace of yellow beneath) in
Birch Field where it kept very low down & sometimes
alighted on the ground. There were several Yellow Palm
