has seen this warbler in Jefferson county only in migration 
time, and it seems to have escaped King’s observation that it 
breeds in Wisconsin. In 1882 I did not examine its breeding 
ground in nesting time. In 1883 I found that it must have 
nests in several places in thick damp woods. It was seen 
mostly flying in the tops of high larch trees. On June 9 I 
saw a male and female about to pair in the G-reat Wood south 
of the railway. I saw most in the Pine Wood. June 14, I saw one, 
June 25, three males, so there must have been at least three 
nests. In 1883, first male seen May 3. A few during the three 
following days. None on the 7th. The day after, so many that 
no other one species of warbler could compare with it in num¬ 
bers. None May 9. Afterward daily, except 16th and 17th. 
The 18th, probably the first female. Migration ended 23d. In 
1883 four males were seen in a warbler flock the morning of 
May 7. In the afternoon in a great flock, most numerous next 
to D. coronata. None 8th-14th. A few occasionally from 15th 
to 21st. The 20th, first female. 22nd, many of both sexes; 
more numerous than any other species in a large warbler-flock. 
None the 23d. Many the 24th. Next again on the 27th, when 
they predominated in a smaller warbler-flock. Herewith the 
migration ended. 
Dendroica dominica albilora Baird is a southern bird, which 
was met with once, however, at Racine (Hoy). 
156. Dendroica yirens (Gmel.). xxx M. $ (5) L. 113-119. 
E. 182-194. W. 63-66. T. 47-63. B. 9. $ L. 117. E. 183. 
W. 61. T. 43. B. 9. In 1882, several males May 4. After¬ 
wards occasionally; not after 22nd. None 7th, 9th and 13th- 
18th. Plenty only May 8. In 1883 two males in large warbler- 
flock, May 7. None 8th-23d. 24th, several of both sexes. None 
25th. Many 26th. A few may breed in Wisconsin, but in 
Shiocton none were noticed in breeding time.
