warbles, peet-byouicks, pit-yurkis, tork-queelyas, queelicks, etc. B occasionally climbs into the old oak and sings. Mar. 11th. Early morning song was first at 5:15. There was almost no nesting activity during the day, and the new bird was not seen very often. B called her quite frequently (when he had lost track of her?) and she usually made her presence known within a few minutes. Once she was repulsed by one of the young birds angrily, though I could not determine the cause. This was while, with the assistance of Brownie, I was making the first real effort to overcome the fear of the youngsters, by stretching out on the ground in a place which they frequent, and depending upon B to bring them to me. Not much effort; but it worked. One took a worm from the palm of my hand and the other took two doses of food from the squirt gun. Both went to sleep on the ground within reach. They both have Greenie's eye color, appear of the same size, but are easily distinguishable by difference in their superciliary stripes. It is the one having this prominent stripe that accepted food from the feeder, the other refused to take food this way, but took the worm from my hand. March 12th. A chilly, overcast morning, and I did not go to the glade until after 9, just as B was running toward the nest with material. He changed his mind as soon as he saw me and fed one of the youngsters to replenish with meal worms, but not the other, who was not to be seen. On going to the nest, the other was seen on the ground below it, outside the fence trying to forage for himself. B ignored him at first, making additions to the nest; but when the youngster, after several futile attempts to get through the fence, finally succeeded and came to my feet, Brownie stuffed him also. In the meantime
