(422) to a tree behind me where he sang loudly a few short snatches and then came to me along the ground . They both then fell to digging under the trees and I left them. During this approach both birds called and sang loudly. I had been doubtful of their coming to me so confidingly after the recent excitement and in what is really a strange place, more especially as, having no young, the food problem is not a difficult one at the present time. An hour or so before they did not "know" me, now they talked in my face. 10:45 About 10:15 both birds were in the top of the pine by the kitchen door. One of them, later proving to be Greenie, was making new sounds somewhat like the introductory notes of the Bullock Oriole song, but not, I think, an imitation. Brownie made a long swooping dive of about 100 feet passing directly over my head, so that I ducked involuntarily, and landed near Julio chopping wood under the dormitory tree. There she picked up a twig, carried it to Room A almost directly over Julio's head and began working. Greenie soon joined her, but merely inspected. There is a tame white pigeon her that is always snooping around looking at things. He went over to where Brownie was selecting twigs from the ground and watched her. When, however, he got too close (about 2 feet from her) she dashed at him and drove him away with pecks, although he is many times her size. While working Brownie uttered another series of deep notes that I do not recall having heard before, something like: ka taw 11:40. At 11:30 I stood by the dorm., Brownie was on the nest.

While there she uttered a series of low sound, somewhat like the call of the Slender-
