Richards 1957 Paris, sp1 21 Dec, 1957 2.8mi. WNW Richmond, 1275ft., Jefferson Co., Ohio. shot 2 chichadees out of a flock that included several more, plus tufted titmouse, Paris auicolar, Sitta carolinensis. Also in area Dendroscopos pusculus and Centurus carolinensis. Shin # 259, Q ad. and 260, S, ad. (stalls 2 layers). They were foraging in branches + trunks of leafless hardwoods. 23 Dec. 1957 2.1mi. WNW Steubenville (Post Office) 1150ft., Jefferson Co., Ohio. got 1 chichadee in the area over-looking "the Rocks", near Parma's Run at the foot of our hollow. It was alone but I had seen others, and titmouse, neareby. It is # 263, ad. Q with slight fat. Later examination of these chichadees showed one from Richmond to be atricapillus, the other two are carolinensis, Also on 28 Dec., in the Richmond locality and near Jefferson Lake, several other two atricapillus were seen. Shins 263 and 259 = P. carolinensis estinus 260 is apparently a P. atricapillus intergrade, looks like practices, measures like P.Q. atricapillus.
