Dendroica coronata. 1896, copy (6) Lake Umbagog. May 30. Nest. The Yellow-rump's nest in the fork of the tall paper birch at Osgood's camp-ground had nearly doubled in size when I visited it this morning. I watched it about ten minutes during which the female came to it three times with building material. She remained in the nest an unusually long time, turning around and working with her bill. 1898, copy (7) Lake Umbagog. September 2. Pine Point. One of the Yellow-rumps, a female in worn breeding plumage, was feeding a brood of young which were still in first plumage.
