These song sparrows were all collected by Ferrell as part of his thesis work and skinned by me. They had been opened - widely - by Ferrell & drained of blood when received, and were 4-6 days old.
The G. F. number corresponds with the # in his note book for this date except that I recorded two # 6s; the assignment here is based on the wing measurement recorded by Ferrell.
