Vegetable food—The vegetable diet of the hermit thrush consists 
largely of fruit, as with most birds of this group. As might be ex- 
pected of a bird of such retiring habits, but little of the fruit eaten 
can be classed as cultivated. In September 5.45 per cent was so 
considered, but in most months the quantity was small, and in March, 
April, and May was completely wanting. The total for the year 
as found in 17 stomachs is 1.20 per cent. One stomach contained 
strawberries, one grapes, one figs, one currants, two apples, and the 
rest Rubus fruit, i. e., blackberries or raspberries. These last as well 
as the strawberries were probably wild. Of the wild fruit (26.19 
per cent) 46 species were identified with a reasonable degree of cer- 
tainty in 248 stomachs. <A few seeds, ground-up vegetable matter
