 in full song. They were never very common, inhabited only swampy 

 thickets and hard-wood groves, and were extremely shy.

However, the Wood Thrush, which is 

 very common, makes an agreeable substitute, coming about the 

 dwellings with the fearless confidence of the Chipping Sparrow, 

 and by his unexpected sociability atoning for the Catbird's short- 

 comings in this respect. They were first seen on April 4.

2. Turdus mustelinus, Gmel. Wood Thrush.— Arrives from the 

 North early in October when the aromatic berries of the Magnolia grandi- 

 flora are ripe, on which they eagerly feed. On account of this food the 

 flesh is very delicate and large numbers are killed by pot hunters, who 

 call them " Grassets." In the winter months they appear not to be com- 

 mon and inhabit swampy thickets and bottom woods.
