Late Occurrence of the Phcebe ( Sayornis fuscus) at Brewer, Maine. — On 
Nov. 23 (1884), when the snow here was six inches deep, and the Penob- 
scot River frozen over above the dam, a Phcebe came into my garden and 
remained a long time. As it was Sunday I did not shoot him, but there 
is no doubt as to his identity, for my daughter and I stood within a few 
feet of him and watched him catch insects over a smoking manure heap. —

63. Sayornis fuscus, (Pewee). Common around 
the farms south of Kingfield. Breeds under same 
conditions as elsewhere. Found one nest placed 
under the shelving upturned roots of a tree ; truly 
a natural situation.

There were other Flycatchers which I was 
unable to secure.
