The Scarlet and Summer Tanager, Orchard and Baltimore Oriole, 
Mourning Dove, Indigo Bunting, Red-tailed Hawk, Cardinal, Yellow-breasted 
Chat, and Yellowthroat are known to nest in the area. The following list 
is the result of 25 field trips from the winter of 1960 to January, 1964, taken 
by ten observers. This is not intended as a complete list. Since most of the 
counts were taken in winter, there are probably many warblers and other 
migrants that were not seen by us but certainly are present in the forest 
during migration.

Since the forest consists of several separate tracts of land, it is sug- 
gested that a map of the area be used by the visitor. A copy can be pro- 
cured by writing to Richard H. Thom, District Forester, P. O. Box 256, 
Olney, Illinois. If wanted, the best birding areas will be marked. Your 
comments and suggestions will be appreciated.
