Black Vulture in Vermont. — On July 7, 1912, a Black Vulture 
(Catharista uruhu) was shot in Pawlet, Vt., a town adjoining this but just 
across the New York line. It was brought to me for identification and is 
being mounted by a local taxidermist. It seemed to be an old bird in fine 
plumage and the wonder is that it should be taken several hundred miles 
north of its summer home. — F. T. Pembeb, Granville, N. Y.
