Pipilo erythrophthalmus. Towhee. — A pair was taken in the town of 
Vienna, about two miles northeast of the village of North Bay, July 8, 
1897. Our fourth record, but all the others were migrants. 
A Winter Record for the Chewink on Long Island, N. Y. — On January 
12, 1903, I saw in a small piece of woodland near Long Island City, 
N. Y., a male Chewink ( Pipilo erythrophthalmus'). It was in full plum- 
age and very active, but permitted me to approach within twenty-five feet 
of it. I have looked for it since, but have not seen it again. This is the 
only instance known to me of this species wintering here. — W. F. 
Hendrickson, Long Island City , N. Y.

18. Pipilo erythrophthalmus. Towhee. — Not mentioned. A single 
specimen was taken during spring migration near Oneida by Mr. Percy 
Klock, and Mr. Miller also took one at Peterboro. Mr. Egbert Bagg and 
the writer found the Towhee resident in low woods near Oneida Lake in 
Oneida County several years ago (see Auk, XVII, 178, 1900), and there is 
no doubt that the bird breeds also in similar situations a little farther 
along the shore within the limits of Madison County.
