La Prade, on Warblers Around Atlanta, Ga.

ami eggs in sitn, I collected the nest and three eggs, ^t was 
three feet from the ground, in vines slniig nnder a small elm, 
and rather ronghly built of dead leaves, rootlets, and pine 
needles. This Avas in thick, damp Avoods, near a stream bordered 
by extensive thickets, in a locality like those describe<l by Mr. 
Brewster and Mr. Wayne, except for the absence of canes. 
Helmitheros I'erniivorus: Worm-eating Warbler. No nest 
has been fonnd here, bnt a few undoubtedly breed. One pair 
AAms observed through the breeding season of lOlG, and one 
female in slightly Avorn plnmage Avas shot June 1, 1910, and is 
noAV in Emory University. TAvice I have searched in vain while 
excited females indicated AAmll-hidden treasures. Chapman notes 
exceptional breeding in North Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, 
and Louisiana, bnt 1 snsjmct that they may be fonnd in small 
nimibers thronghont the hill country in this belt of states. 
Yermivora pimis: illne-Avinged Warbler. While collecting 
some late migrants on May 3, 1910, I shot a female Blne-Aving, 
and on dissection Avas snr])rised to lind an egg nearly ready to 
lay. Later in the season Mr. D. C. Peacock saAV a family of 
yonng Blne-Avings in care of the motlier. Chapman gives north- 
ern Kentucky, Maryland, and Pennsylvania as the southern 
breeding limit. 
Dendroica (estiva (estiva : YelloAA^ IVarbler. Having so easily 
located nests of this Avarbler in Missouri, it is hard to nnder- 
stand Avhy I have not fonnd them here. Abnndant in migration, 
only a ferv fonnd in the breeding season, around AvilloAV trees in 
pastures or along streams. Eejmated search in trees and bnshes 
has been in vain. More should breed here, Avliere there are no 
Cowbirds to disturb. 
Dendroica cerulea: Cernlean IVarbler. I knoAV of only one 
piece of Avoods Avhere it breeds, bnt several pairs certainly nest 
there every season. High np in the sycamores and poplars the 
distinctive song of the Cerulean may be heard throngh May and 
Jnne, bnt one needs a real rubber neck to keep an eye on these 
tiny singers, Avhich look no bigger than bumble-bees in the tree 
tops. After the leaves fell one winter I located a nest, lAresnm- 
ably of this species, saddled on a limb of a giant sycamore which 
I searched in vain the preceding May. 
Dendroica dominicrv dominica: Yellow- throated Warbler. This 
is another species that has baffled local oologists. Living in the 
highest pines, where they may be fonnd from the middle of March 
until October, the nests are doubtless indistiugnishable from
