82 2 1907, August 30 Hylodichla fuscescens. Concord, Mass. 178 Night call identified as that of the Veery. the sounds which I attributed to them is beyond question. Equally certain is it that the cries which they gave at first were the same as those which I have heard so often at Lake Umbagog and which evidently represent the night call of the species. As far as I have observed it is uttered by the Veery only at night and during migration, but this rule may be subject to exceptions for the cor- responding and closely similar call of the Hermit is sometimes given by day, even when the birds are still on their breeding grounds. 28
