Cyanocitta cristata. Bethel to Lake Umbagog, Maine. 1900. In Grafton south of the Notch we (the Stones and I) saw a Sept.2 truly remarkable flock of Blue Jays for it contained fully some fifty birds. As we approached they flew from apple trees by the roadside across a field into the woods passing over the open ground in a compact flock behind which, however, lin- gered a few stragglers.
