Engraved andhaud-eolored by C. J. Mayjiard AMERICAN AVARBLERS. 6., )\ along fence rows and stone walls and in al^andoned o-ravol))its. Twenty years ago Yellow Warblers freqnented tlieshrnbbery abont my honse, and built there or in the neio-hbor-ing apple trees, bnt I have not seen a nest abont the honse forten years. Mneh of the shrnbbery remains abont the ))laee,and I attribnte this abandonment to the fact that many chang-es have been made in the neighborhood, thns removino- mostof the thickets in which the birds also bnilt, thns my gronndshave become isohited from other breeding places. I do notthink that there is any less nnmber of Yellow AVarblers inEastern Massachnsetts in snmmer now, taking the natnral va-riation in seasons into acconnt, than there w as when thev wereto be fonnd everywhere, bnt the i-emoval of so nnich shrnl)-l)ery has cansed them to go to sections where this has notbeen disturbed, and, in fact, I can always find them as abund-ant as they ever were in snch j^lac
