American Egret ( Herodias egretla) at Naushon Island, Mass. — I 
was much interested in Mr. Noble’s note in the January ‘ Auk,’ on the 
American Egret at Martha’s Vineyard. I saw an American Egret fly over 
the northeastern end of Naushon Island on July 20, 1913 while I was there 
for a visit. On August 11, 1913, when returning from Nantucket my hus¬ 
band and I saw two American Egrets standing at the edge of a green marsh 
between Wood’s Hole and Falmouth. These birds looked gleaming white 
with the green marsh background. — Lidian E. Bridge, West Medford,
