I Winner of first prize in elass call once more, but this time the notes were in pairs, the emphasis on the second so that they were easily distinguished from those of Song Sparrow. To the end of the wren's stay, I was unable to distinguish with certainty between his single note and that of the Song Sparrow. I found that the Winter Wren was much more easily noted than many large birds because he always made his presence known by his loud note or attracted the eye with his constant motion. Song Sparrows, Tree Sparrows, and Goldfinches find food in the Haunt all winter. The Goldfinches are in flocks and liven the scene greatly with their full-spirited, bounding flight, and add a very definite amount to the attractiveness of a trip with their undeniably cheerful note; they are anything but tristis as their name implies. From time to time the Haunt is visited by the first cousins to the Goldfinches, the Pine Siskins. These ten are the small birds of the Haunt during the severe part of winter. They all seem happy, and indeed it is easy to see how they can obtain their food while the trees are dry and the ground is clear;.
