Ferry took a number of specimens from a flock of Pine Grosbeaks at Lake Forest, 111. Mr. L. 0. Pindar reports it from Fulton County, Kentucky, several times between February 7 and March 19, 1888 (The Auk, July, 1888, p. 321). They were seen in flocks of thousands in Jackson County, Mich., in 1881, and were very tame. Jackson County is only one county re- moved from Indiana. With that exception, they are reported as rare in southern Michigan. They are found far north, where Mr. Felson says they withstand the cold of these forests even within the Arctic Circle. Wherever found they appear in flocks, the greater part of which are young and females. Adult males are few some writers say, from one to ten or fifteen of the plainer-colored birds. Their disposition is agreeable, social and gentle. The fruit of the red cedar and berries of the mountain ash are favorite foods along the southern portion of their winter Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Butler, Amos W.
