A Winter Record for the Palm Warbler on Long Island, N. Y. — 
In the plains country south of Hicksville, on Dec. 13, 1914, the writers 
saw an example of Dendroica palmar um palmarum (Gmelin), and were 
enabled to examine it carefully through field glasses at a distance of only 
a few paces. The bird was first flushed from a pile of brushwood over- 
grown with brambles. Thence it flew into a cultivated field and skulked 
among growing cabbage heads, but after being stalked by us for a few 
minutes it returned to the thicket where we positively identified it. 
Eaton’s ‘ Birds of New York ’ (1914) quotes no winter record of the 
species in New York State, and Braislin's Long Island ‘ List ’ (1907) gives the 
latest autumn record of this subspecies as October 10 (and on this date I 
saw one at Forest Hills, L. I., 1914 — C. LI. R.). — R. C. Murphy, Brooklyn
