(343) I was unable to compare the two songs under similar conditions. August 18th. 6:07 P.M. I had little opportunity of observing the thrashers today; however all three were accounted for by 9 A.M., Snooty apart from his parents. Both Brownie and Greenie were heard singing their undersongs at various times and two or three times were seen together. At about 5:45 P.M. I looked them all up.

Yesterday one took a worm about 2 inches from my finger tips and they always, now, take worms tossed to them. These are not eaten by them but carried off always in the same direction and along the same route as far as I can
