Distribution of New England Birds. - 
A Reply to Dr. Brewer. H.A.Purdie. 
Citmg again from our standard work on North American birds we find 
this ot Orhjx virginianus ^ ^ 
/<!A- 
“ This bird is probably found in all the New 
England States, though its presence in Maine is not certain, and if found 
there at all, is only met with in the extreme southwestern portion. It is 
also rare in Vermont and New Hampshire, and only found in the southern 
portions. It is not given by Mr. Boardman, nor by Professor Verrill.”
