30. SMALL-BILLED WATER THRUSH. {Siuriis ncevius). 
A summer resident, but not a common bird. Three heard 
singing at Hampton, and one taken at Taylor’s Island on July 
first, are the only records of its occurrence my note-book for 
1 88 1 contains. 
31. MOURNING WARBLER. (Geothlypis Philadelphia). 
This species had not been observed in this locality prior 
to i88o; but in June of that year, a cat attached to the es- 
tablishment of the light-house keeper on Partridge Island 
carried several specimens to her rising family, and during the 
last week in May of i88i this same feline collector again 
produced evidence of the occurrence of the species on the 
Island ; but not a single example could be found there on 
June 8th, nor on several other days during the summer when 
the Island was searched for it. Mr. H. B. Bailey informed 
me that he heard several individuals singing at Hampton on 
June 23, 1881. 
32. MARYLAND YELLOW-THROAT. {Geothlypis trichas). 
An abundant summer resident. Is common near Saint 
John throughout the season ; breeds. 
33. BLACK-CAPPED YELLOW WARBLER, “WILSON’S BLACK- 
CAP.” {Myiodioctes pusillus). 
An uncommon summer resident; arrives in vicinity of 
Saint John early in May; breeds. 
34. CANADIAN FLYCATCHING WARBLER. {Myiodioctes cana- 
densis). 
An occasional summer resident. A nest with eggs, taken 
June, 1880, is in Mr. Banks’ collection. 
35. AMERICAN REDSTART. {Setophaga ruticilla). 
A summer resident; breeds abundantly everywhere.
