Notes. 
The following is a continuation of interesting notes 
from Mrs. Viola IF. Richards. under date of Dee. 2, 1919. 
‘*‘T saw the Scarlet Tanager [see Vol. XI, p. 159] Nov- 
ember 26, 27, 28. and 29, It still showed about the same 
amount of scarlet inits plumage. Since the 29th I have 
not seen it, butif itremains in this vicinity I think it will 
come here, on account of the suet I have paces where it 
pppemted most often. 
‘A game warden friend of ours reported seeing Rob- 
ins the 27th in the western part of our town [Deerfield]. 
where he sees them every winter. He also reports many 
Goldfinches in the woods. 3 
‘*] heard a Robin, and saw six Goldfinches the 28th. 
Hear Goldfinches every day. 
‘The 29th I saw a fair sized flock of Juncos and Tree 
Sparrows feeding together in the swamp. 
‘‘A pair of Downy Woodpeckers comes to our window 
shelf daily, also two Nuthatches and several Chickadees.
