tes, that I cannot refrain from briefly mentioning it. It is sometimesfound in Pennsylvania, or the State of New York, as well as in New Jersey,as early as the beginning of April, but is only seen there for a few days. Ihave shot some individuals at such times, when I observed them employedin searching for insects and larvae along the fences bordering our fields. Atother times I have shot them late in June, in the State of Louisiana, whenthe cotton-plant was covered with blossoms, amongst which they were busilysearching for food. The Bay-breasted Warbler, however, has so far eludedmy inquiries, that I am unable to give any further account of its habits. Bay-breasted Warbler, Sylvia castanea, Wils. Amer.
