Brown Finch A267474, banded on
Bamfou 2/28'31. Empipped on window ledge
of Life Science Bldg. 2/7 '33, by Seth B.
Benson. Band badly worn and replaced
by Benson with A287031. This bird referred to by Ritter and Benson
at meeting of Boston Ornithological
Club on Oct. 27 '31. See Condor, Vol. XXV.
Jan.-Fely, 1933, Page 48.
Breden-crown Sparrow A/80147-B/61268
and Sharsher A411677. These birds
were found dead in traps 3/3 '33, after
traps had been closed for four days.
Traps were upside down, or otherwise
arranged, so that I had believed
that no birds could be caught in
them.
Nuttall Sparrow. B101379. Caught in
government sparrow traps with several
other birds. Exposed to heavy rain for
not more than half an hour (3/14 '33 about
4:30 p.m.) The other birds were also chilled
but recovered. This bird died in spite
of my drying and warming it. Only lived
about half an hour.
Fox Sparrow B161318 (See P. 249) Repeated 3/19 '33.
apparently in perfect health. See P. 252.
Nicrosia Jay 588913. (See P. 249) Repeated 3/21 9 a.m.
in same trap in which it was caught 3/14 at B.
The bell was broken (Leigh bell variety) to that
only shell remained. I removed what was left
and liquefied the bird (See P.252.)
