the road on the left, going toward Tuxedo. Starting in about a 
quarter of a mile east of the Guest House, a trail leads along the 
eastern side of the pond, emerging from the woods near the bridge 
over Kanahwauke Lake and meeting the main motor road there. 
Since these lakes are the centers of many camps of Boy Scouts, I 
here suggest that an interesting trip for bird study would be around 
Little Long Pond, with the trail over Hemlock Hill ; or around 
Little Long Pond alone; or the west shore of the pond with Hem- 
lock Hill (Figs. 11, 13). Beginning with the marked trail as it 
strikes into the woods on the eastern side of the pond, observations 
are suggested as follows: Oven-bird, singing and nesting; Black 
and White Warbler, singing and feeding young; Veery, or Wilson's 
Thrush, singing and nesting in the birch-fern swamps contiguous 
to the lake shore; Downy Woodpecker, gleaning in the swamp- 
woods; Ruffed Grouse, feeding in the sapling coverts; Robin, nest- 
ing along the trail; Song Sparrow, bushy water margins; Cedar 
Waxwing, roadside and lake-shore shrubbery; Brown Thrasher, 
nesting in the trail-side shrubbery; Scarlet Tanager, singing in 
exposed treetops; Spotted Sandpiper, active along shore; Red- 
winged Blackbird, nesting and active in the marshy ends of the 
pond; Maryland Yellow- throat, singing and nesting in pond-shore 
bushes ; Catbird, singing and nesting in lake-shore shrubbery ; Red- 
eyed Vireo, singing and nesting in the broken margins; Chestnut- 
sided Warbler, in bushes under broken canopy; Black Duck, feed- 
ing in the marsh grass ; Redstart, singing and feeding in road and 
shore margins; Towhee, in undergrowth along trail and shore; 
Baltimore Oriole, singing in tall trees of roadside; Barn Swallow, 
Bank Swallow, Cliff Swallow, pond shores near bridge; Green 
Heron, marshy pond shore; Redstart, broken swamp woods and 
margins; Indigo Bunting, hillside bushes along road; House Wren, 
near pond-shore buildings ; Kingbird, nesting near bridge ; Flicker, 
Blue Jay and Crow, calling along hillside above road ; Rose-breasted 
Grosbeak, feeding in fruit-bearing shrubbery ; Bluebird, casual near 
the bridge; Chickadee, along trail and on Hemlock Hill; Worm- 
eating Warbler, feeding young on Hemlock Hill. The trail up 
the Hill, beginning at the brook above the junction of the John- 
sontown road with the Tuxedo Drive, I estimated to be about a mile
