Notes. Nuttall Sparrow L 43961. Typical immatures Nuttall, except that bend of wing was white, like a Gambel's, confirmed by Dr. Grinnell. Wren-tit 91519. Banded by C. D. Blabough March 20 1925. Recaptured by me 2/21/34 and 12 times previously. This bird must now be at least two years old. B.S. band still in good condition-also the two red cal- luloid bands attached by Mary Blickton on Feb. 14 1933. Nuttall Sparrow L 43860-L 43866. Book 2, P. 166. By "plumage almost adult" is meant that Stripe through crown is white, but that Stripes on each side are brownish black; not yet pure black also B/161016 Book 2, P. 96. Nuttall Sparrow L 72813. After being trapped the first time, in a government sparrow trap, together with about a dozen Nuttalls, Golden- creeper and Junco's, I found this bird, about five minutes after releasing it, in a N.B.B.A. two-compartment trap, about 75 ft. distant. Nuttall Sparrow L 43511. Black just beginning to appear, at base of bill, on brown head lines Nuttall Sparrow L 72868. Reference B/4/1261. Banded first Feb. 17 1933 and entered as a Gambel Sparrow. This was a mistake.
