161. Scarlet Tanager. Has been quite rare 
up to the year of 1888, when I found them to 
be quite common in the woods. Although I 
have searched many times for their nest I have 
not been able to find one. The song of this 
bird is much like that of the Robin, only not 
as loud. Perched on the top of a tall tree, the 
male will sing for some time, and then dart off 
on its useful mission of destroying insects.
