1S88. We entered a dense spruce woods vmere the trees stood so 



June 16. thickly that they shut out nearly every ray of sunlight. The 

 ground beneath was sraooth and carpeted with brown needles. 

 Hearing a Kinglet sing we went in pursuit and found a pair, 

 the feinale of which was collect i ng material for her nest, 

 in a very few minutes we traced her to it. It was some 40 ft. 

 up in a large, dense spruce near the extremity of a branch 

 under which it hung not ujiliKe a Vireo's nest. Bailey climbed 

 to it and found it nearly finished. Both birds darted into 

 and out of it as soon as he descended.
