Note. Species Nos. 148, 149, 150 and 153 have been 
found breeding more or less commonly at Clear Lake, 
Cerro Gordo county, only a few miles from the Franklin 
county line. In the absence of any record of tlieir nidi- 
lication within our limits, however, they must be classed 
as migrants: the above being, it is believed, the most 
southern record of their nesting.
