Breeding of Dendroica striata at Great Slave Lake. — June 24, 1908, while 

 crossing the burned over area on the high roclsy center of Moose Island, 

 near Fort Resolution, I stepped across a small dead spruce lying on the 

 ground, and a small plainly colored bird darted from the mass of tall dead 

 grass which surrounded the trunk of the fallen tree. The bird disappeared 

 in the underbrush at once without uttering a sound. Concealing myself, 

 I waited about twenty minutes and the bird stealthily approached the 

 nest hopping from bush to bush, occasionally uttering a sharp, nervous 

 tsi'p lilie the alarm note of the Junco. The bird proved to be a female 

 Black-poll Warbler. The nest was placed directly on the ground in the 

 middle of a clump of tall grasses, immediately underneath a small, fallen 

 spruce, the trunk of which was lying about ten inches above the ground. 

 The nest was composed of dead grasses, mixed with cottony substances 

 and a little moss, lined with finer grasses, and a few feathers including 

 one tail feather of a Fox Sparrow. The four eggs were advanced in incu- 

 bation; whitish colored, spotted with light brown tending to form a wreath 

 around the larger end, the wreath more distinct in some specimens than 

 others. — R. M. Anderson, Amer. Mus. Nat. Hist., New York City.
