Ashby One in a little bit of springy meadow m a 
pasture on the"” side of Mt Watatic at an elevation of aboutbhTOOO 
feet; another in a larger meadow sprinkled thickly wit 1 ' bl'aSf be rr y 
and other low bushes within about 400 yards of m r. Brooks' house 
in Ashby. The former bird was singing intermittently at about 
five o'clock on the afternoon of June 26th, the latter was not 
once heard during the day time, but every evening began singing at 
about the same time as the Whipoorwill and sung incessantly 
at intervals <£f from three to seven seconds each as late as we re- 
mained up to hear it, or on the average until about II o' clock P 
Once during the night I woke and heard it still singing, probably 
about two or three o' clock in the morning.
