Unseasonable Birds on Long Island. — i. Galeoscoptes carolinensis. — 



On December 30, 18S2, while passing along one of the streets of our village 

 — Fort Hamilton — my attention was arrested by a bird note, familiar yet 

 strangely out of place at that season — none other than the character- 

 istic cry of the Catbird. I caught sight of the bird a moment later, hop- 

 ping about in the branches of a lilac bush in a private yard, not a dozen 

 feet from me, so that there was no error in the identification.

12. Catbird. Common. I find the favorite 

 resorts of this bird to be along the river banks 

 and small creeks. Their food consists of bugs 

 and strawberries. The nest is placed in a bush 

 or small tree, is composed of small twigs and 

 is lined with hair and sometimes loaves. It is 

 deeply hollowed and is quite cortipact. The 

 eggs, usually four in number, are of a dark 

 green color and measure as follows: 7-8 in. by 

 U-16 in. As the last of September draws ng.ar, 

 the Catbird departs for its southern horae,'not 

 in flocks, however, but in pairs or singly.
