Quiscalus quiscalus aeneus. Lakes Umbagog, Maine. Quiscalus aeneus 1855. In autumn. Oct. 27. - Clear, warm, and calm all day. Starting at 10 A.M. I spent the day on the lake following the west shore to the head of the Sweet Corn. About opposite the southern end of Great Island I heard the clamor of Blackbirds in the woods and landing found a flock of about fifty Quiscalus aeneus with perhaps half as many Molothrus chestnut in the tops of some large yellow birches when they were making a great racket and apparently doing nothing else. I could not get within shot of the main body so had to kill one of the outsiders a fine Q. aeneus in perfect fall plumage. I also shot a Hylotornis that was perched.
