Galeoscoptes carolinensis.
1888,
September 12. At the Sluice, Lake Umbagog.
Saw a Catbird in the alders.
1896, copy (1) Lake Umbagog.
May 21. Lakeside.
Early this morning I found a Catbird in a thicket of
raspberry and elder bushes by the roadside in the Brown clearing.
It was silent, listless and tame, appearing to be tired as if it
had only just arrived which, indeed, must have been the case as I
have passed every morning the place for the last three days.
1897, copy (2) Lake Umbagog.
June 9. Leonard's Pond.
A Catbird appeared on the island in Leonard's Pond and
sang for an hour or more on the morning of June 5. We heard noth-
ing of him on either of the following two days, but he was singing
there freely yesterday and again this morning, so he will probably
stay and breed.
