A 7 FLY-CATCHING UN 
'massachusett^ ^^ ^^ 
On the 9th of June, 1884, wlufe'wroc^ 
ing through a piece of wet woods near 
Arlington Heights, which consisted 
mainly of oak and maple, I flushed a 
small bird from the ground right before 
my feet. It alighted on a bush close by 
and uttered a loud chuck of alarm. I 
saw then that it was a female Canada 
Fly-catching Warbler. Supposing that 
she had sprung from her nest, I shot her 
to prevent the possibility of a mistake. 
After some search I found the nest at 
the foot of a tree, sunk on a level with 
the ground and carefully concealed 
under the checkaberry vines which grew 
around in abundance. It contained five 
eggs which were just ready to hatch.
