A male in a cherry tree in front of our house in 
Watertown. It frequently launched out after passing 
insects, alighting 'ht’i a quick flirt of its full spread 
tail. Sometimes it descor.ded almost to the ground and 
elingirn- to tae trunk of the tree climbed upv^ard by 
quick sidelonr' hops, searching the bark carefully for 
insects. Its song was a feeble sch ee —schee—schee—r.c!iee 
rising to its t-rminatio:\. aru! endir. ■ abruptly; it some- 
v/hat rose: bled the song of theRdddStart. J.ike the Bal¬
