Troglodytes aedon aedon (Vieillot). House Wren. 
Not an uncommon breeding species within both zones six and 
seven. Owing to the lack of suitable nesting sites, the species 
is less abundant than it might well be. 
Nannus hiemalis hiemalis (Vieillot). Winter Wren. 
But two individuals seen: one in six, the other in the heart 
of the woods. Probably more common than data show. 
Cistothorus stellaris (Naumann). Short-billed Marsh W r ren. 
Common in the deep grass of five, where it breeds. 
Telmatodytes palustris palustris (Wilson). Long-billed Marsh 
Wren. 
More common than the preceding, and of practically the same 
distribution. Dummy nests of the species are to be found all 
through the swamp, where the ground is moist. 
Certhia familiaris americana Bonaparte. Brown Creeper. 
A resident of the woods, less frequent in summer, and there 
is no breeding evidence at hand. Prefers the rough barked 
trees (oaks) and rarely ascends more than ten feet above the 
ground. 
Sitta carolinensis carolinensis Latham. White-breasted Nut- 
hatch. 
Abundant during the fall and winter, and not unusual in 
the woods in summer. 
Sitta canadensis Linnaeus. Red-breasted Nuthatch. 
Only one individual was seen (April 30), and this was quite 
common at the same time across the lake. 
Penthestes atricapillus atricapillus (Linnaeus). Chicadkee. 
A common resident and breeding species in seven as a whole, 
but an abundant visitor to zone six during the winter, when 
it feeds among the buds of the dogwood society flora. 
Regulus satrapa satrapa Lichtenstein. Golden-crowned Kinglet. 
A common migrant in zones six and seven, rarely seen after 
the first of May. More common than the next species. 
Regulus calendula calendula (Linnaeus). Ruby-crowned King- 
let. 
A rather common migrant over the same area as the pre- 
ceding, but in evidence for a shorter period of time, and more of 
a “cold weather” species.
