to that of the Chipping Sparrow ; and a faint whispering warble, 
usually much broken but not without sweetness, and sometimes 
continuing intermittently for many minutes. It seems to slip very 
readily from a simple chirping, and is always the song with 
which the- species begins the season. Later, the first mentioned 
becomes the more general if not the only song, as I found it to be 
in the Catskill Mountains in summer, when the birds were 
breeding. 
The Snowbird does not often sing in the autumn, but I 
have heard both of its songs in October and November; and it 
seems always ready with a few feeble song-notes tor any day 
that comes out sunshiny and mild in sudden change from harder 
weather.
