Helminthophila celata. copy Lake Umbagog, Maine. 1890. At the further end of a cover of poplars and birches Sept.26. growing thinly on a knoll (near Ferrin's) I heard a Warbler in some alders uttering, at intervals, a chirp which sounded at once strange and familiar. By "screeping" a few times I called it into sufficiently plain view to see that it was none of the species of common occurrence here and at once shot it when to my great delight I found that it was an Orange-crown, a bird which as far as I know has never before been taken in this region. It proved a female in fresh au- tumn plumage and although hard shot made a very good skin.
