Chipping Sparrow ( Spizella socialis ). — Last Oct. 12, a large 
sparrow wave passed through the country near Eganville, Ren- 
frew Co., Ont. There were Tree Sparrows, Juncos, White-crowned 
and White-throated Sparrows, and the present species. Among 
these last were a great number having one or several pink excres- 
cences on feet or wings, which seemed to be of a somewhat horny 
texture. One, on the wing of a specimen I took, was as large as 
a pea. I never before noticed such growths to be so common as on 
that day.
