Evening Grosbeaks in Vermont. — During the last few weeks, there has 
been around my house here, a flock of Evening Grosbeaks ( Coccotkraustes 
vespertina), consisting of about a dozen individuals, more than half males 
in the most brilliant plumage. They seem especially fond of the seeds 
still hanging on a box elder tree. — W. W. Cooke, Burlington , Vermont ,
