Muscivora tyrannus (Linn.) in Massachusetts.— On October 22, 
1916, I saw a Fork-tailed Flycatcher perched on the top of a wire fence 
at the side of the,||Kin road a short distance below Gay Lighthouse, 
.Martha's Vineyard. Mass. When disturbed by my repgated approach' 
the bird flew only a short distance each time, and returnivf to the fence'. 
The consppgjusly long outer tail-feathers and general 'coloration made it 
easily recoKpable. Subsequently, by the kindness of, Mr. Outram Bangs, 
of the Muslim of Comparative Zoology, I have exafifingd- specimens of 
this and other species, which entirely confirm my identification. — Francis 
A. Foster, Edgartovm, Massachusetts.
