139 June 3 Found two nests of G. trichas on, one with 2 eggs was built among ferns and by its own exterior bulk raised nearly a foot above the ground; the other contained four fresh eggs and was placed in the very top of a high ground juniper at least 3 ft. about the ground. The 2 of both flew off very quietly and did not in either instance show themselves again or make any plaint. Took also two nests of Seiurus auricapillus, finding both by accidently stumbling upon them and starting the 2 off. In the first instance she ran quickly and rapidly a few rods these commenced tumbling about with spread wings; in the second I put my foot down within four inches of the entrance to the nest and upon the bird's tail as she started off, pulling out nearly a handful of feathers and smashing an egg which she had probably rolled out in her hasty exit. The first set contained four eggs, the second four all fresh. Past that afternoon had very meagre success, went to my Cerphodacus nest in Waverly (found on the 24th) and found the 2 sitting or 5 perfectly fresh eggs. Found only one nest of interest—a small beautifully constructed one on the branch of a yellow pine some 30 ft. up; it was empty and will I think prove to belong to either D. virio or D. flava. Shot Eurp. flav. & in wild apple, tame & silent. My Can. & D E minimum 2.. Heard only one or two other N. Can. the rest of the season.
