long, leading gradually from one wooded level to another, in a 
succession of little glens typical of the region. In an ascent on 
June 15, I concluded that from the beginning of the trail at the 
brook, to the summit (Fig. 13), there were three families of Worm- 
eating Warblers, four families of Black and White Warblers, four 
pairs of Oven-birds, one of Water-thrushes near the brook at its 
beginning, and two families of Bed-eyed Vireos. 
Carr Pond as a Bird Resort. Carr Pond, or Lake Sta-ha-he, is 
near the Tuxedo end of the Park (Fig. 15), about three miles 
beyond Little Long Pond, by way of the Seven Lakes Drive 
(Fig. 14). It borders the Ramapo Hills district, and is the 
central feature of a richly diversified locality, with rugged hills, 
deep ravines and gullies, and terraced hillsides. The forest is 
typical of the Highlands region, except that immediately around 
the shores of Carr Pond hemlock and beech flourish in propor- 
tions more noticeable than elsewhere in the sections of the Park 
already described. A number of the standard Park camps are 
located on the shores of this pond, and the road leads down from 
the main motor drive past the various camp sites, affording a fine 
woods margin for the observation of the birds of the locality. 
This road continues to the upper end of the artificial extension of 
the pond, and from there a trail continues around the pond, making 
the shore continuously accessible for field study of the birds asso- 
ciated with the lake-shore woods. My notes of this locality are 
incomplete, since I did not begin there until after the nesting 
season was over with most of the birds, but they give the fol- 
lowing suggestions: Song Sparrow, singing and feeding young 
in the bushy water margins ; Maryland Yellowthroat, singing in 
the bushy water margins; Spotted Sandpiper, nesting in sprouts 
near the pond shore; Robin, nesting at the camp cabins and else- 
where; Wood Thrush, in the pond-shore woodlands; Kingfisher, 
working along the shores; Chickadee, gleaning in the trees of the 
camps; Scarlet Tanager, singing in tall trees; Oven-bird, in the 
hillside laurels; Red-eyed Vireo, singing in the larger trees; Downy 
Woodpecker, anywhere in the woods; Crow, hillside woods; Green 
Heron, fishing along shore; Red-winged Blackbird, in shore-side
