Par us. 34. Hudfonicus. New Species . Hud- 
fon’s Bay Titmoufe. 
Severn River, N° 12. 
This new fpecies of titmoufe, is called Peche-ke- 
ke-jhij Z>, by the natives. They are common 
about the juniper bufhes, of which the buds 
are their food ; in winter they fly about from 
tree to tree in fmall flocks, the feverefl: wea- 
ther not excepted. They breed about the fet- 
tlements, and lay 5 eggs; they have fmall 
eyes, with a white ftreak under them, and 
black legs : the male and female are quite 
alike; they weigh half an ounce, are 5-J. inches 
long, and 7 inches broad. 
16. Hirundo, 135. 
Swallow. J 
Severn River, N° 58. 
The fwallows build under the windows, and 
on the face of fteep banks of the river, they 
dilappear in autumn ; and the Indians fay, 
they were never found torpid under water, 
probably becaufe they have no large nets to 
fflh with under the ice. The fpecimen fent 
anfwers in fome particulars to the defcription 
of the Martin, Hirundo Urbica, Linn, but feems 
to be fmaller, and has no white on the rump. 
I have, therefore, thought it beft to leave the 
fpecies undetermined, till further informa- 
tions are received from Hudfon’s Bay, on this 
fubjedh
