May 20. Harriman, 900, Orange Co., New York. Other common plants and trees are juniperus virginiana, Pinus toricodendron, a species of Sumac (Pinus), and numerous oaks & elms. The more common birds are yellowthroats, catbirds, song sparrows, Baltimore Orioles, and barn swallows. Collected a.m. There are numerous golden-winged warblers here. Weather warm and humid. May 21. Visited explored a large tract of swampland near Florida, New York, a few miles S.W. of here. Very poor collecting. This is an extensive area of scrub and graybird, with a few widely separated patches of hardwood. Weather very hot and humid. Bright sunlight. Very few birds singing, and even fewer in evidence. Returned home in P.M. May 22. Collected a.m. Bob Storer came up about 7:30 a.m. with a friend, and we collected and skinned until noon. In the P.M. drove to Greenwood Lake, and took a walk along a stream up a hill into a clump of Tsuga canadensis where we heard black-throated green warblers. Rana clamitans numerous along this stream. We collected 15. They are found for the most part sitting on top of boulders at the edges of pools and they dive into the water when approached too rapidly. They are easy to catch if the collector is at all careful. We also took 5 Rana sylvatica and 1 Rana palustris. The former were found in dead leaves and fallen twigs near the stream.
