The Golden-winged Warbler is a rather rare and local summer resident of southern New England and eastern New York. No other New England bird has such a restricted range. It is rare in the Hudson Valley, has been found in New Hampshire only in the Lower Merrimac Valley, and not at all in the interior of Massa- ^'<^-^2- Golden-winged Warbler chusetts, unless in the Connecticut Valley near Springfield. It is not rare in eastern Massachusetts, but is uncommon in Rhode Island and southern Connecticut. It arrives in May, and leaves in August. It frequents dry woodland, particularly near open bush-grown pastures. Its song, though like that of the Black-throated Green Warbler in its wheezy quality, differs decidedly in form (see pp. 113, 114). Blue-WINGED Waeblee. Helminthophila pinus Ad. $. — Crown bright yellow; back and rump bright olive- green in strong light; a narrow black line through the eye ; wings and tail bluish-gray; wing-bars white or yellowish-white; outer.
