The Cowbird Wintering in New Hampshire. — I shot a male Cowbird 
(- Molothrus ater ) Jan. iS, 1895, 011 one of the principal streets of the town. 
It was in company with a flock of Sparrows feeding in front of a grain 
store. The bird had been seen at odd times throughout the winter, 
usually in company with the Sparrows. It was in good plumage and 
condition, and did not seem to mind the cold weather. It would probably 
have remained all winter, for the snow had covered the ground for nearly 
two months and the mercury had touched 20 0 below zero several times.
