Seiurus noveboracensis. Maine (Lake Umbagog). 1880. June 2. Set I-4. Incubated four days; root bank near lake shore; female sat closely. " " Set K-5. Root bank just outside wood edge; female sat closely. " " Set L-4. Fresh. Root-bank within fifty yards of preceding nest. This nest is probably a second one by the same birds whose nest was broken up by Crows or Jays last week (see May 28). The eggs correspond so exact- ly with those of Set B-4 taken within fifty yards of the same spot in 1879, that I think they must have been laid by the same bird. " " Set M-4. Incubated four days. Bank of Swift Cambridge where the water had worn away the earth, leaving the bank a little overarching; nest three feet above the water; found May 22, when the female was at work lining the cavity which she had excavated. " 3. Set N-4. Incubated five days. Root bank at the very bottom; female sitting; she came off only when my face guides face was within a few inches of her. " 8. Set O-4. Incubated seven days--root bank--overarch- od and nicely concealed by a projecting flake of earth. The female sat closely and after being flushed returned and repeatedly tried to enter the nest while we were standing within a few feet of it. The male also appear- ed, tilting and chirping incessantly. " 9. Set P-3. Fresh--root bank, well concealed under overhanging shelf; female sat closely and made a great fuss. This set is the second laying by the parents of K-5. The two nests were in adjoining root-banks not twenty feet apart.
