Nest. 
Watrous anti Gilbert spent most of the afternoon on the 
June 12. southern extremity of Great Island where the farmer found a 
nest of the Bay-breasted Warbler with 5 fresh eggs and one of 
the Black anti Yellow Warbler with one egg. He sent Gilbert 
after the house boat to let me know of this anti I sailed back 
in the canoe, landed, anti examined both nests in situ making 
a perfectly certain identification of the female Bay-breast 
just after Watrous started her off her eggs. She sat wonder¬ 
fully close refusing to ratove when Watrous shook anti moved the 
branch gently or when he thrust out a stick and poked the 
twigs within a few inches of her head. I have described the 
position of the nest anti the behavior of the bird too freely 
in my systematic notes to require further mention here. Wat¬ 
rous got the nest by tying the branch firmly to other branches 
above and then crawling out on it.
