Hylocichla guttata pallasii. 1876. June 7. A nest containing four eggs, in the same pasture where I took one in 1872, was placed on a mound among spruce shrubs not over two feet high. The locality was an elevated open pasture growing up to young firs and spruces. The nest was about twenty yards from the edge of the woods where the male was singing perhaps fifty yards away. The female was sitting and rose about fif- teen feet ahead of me. copy 2 1876. June 12. A nest in rather open second-growth birch woods con- tained four eggs which had been incubated about five days. I stepped within a few inches of it when the fe- male, which sat unusually closely, glided off, running several yards before taking wing. This nest was sunk in the ground and prettily canopied by branches of three little fir shrubs. 1879. June 1. Several males singing in a deep ravine on Upton Hill. The woods dripping after a shower. Turdus pallasi. 1880. Maine (Lake Umbagog). May 16. One sang a few bars of his superb song. June 9. Set D-3. -- Fresh--burnt land on ground under fir shrub. Found June 6 when the female was sitting, today the eggs cold apparently deserted. copy 3 1882. Oct. 8-22 Common. Found everywhere but especially partial to thickets by wood paths and along Cambridge River, places where it never occurs during the breeding season.
