Bird-Lores Advisory Council The demands made upon our space by the exceptionally large census returnscompel us to defer the publication, for the ninth successive year, of the namesand addresses of the ornithologists who, constituting Bird-Lores AdvisoryCouncil, have consented to aid less ex])erienccd The Ninth Christmas Bird Census THE present winter appears to be an exceptionally favorable one for may attribute the presence of se\eral species north of their usualwinter range to the mild weather and comparatively light snow-fall;but this same reason makes it difficult to explain the abundance of certain borealbirds. A winter Phoebe at New Haven is possibly more surprising than the twoTree Swallows on Gardiners Island, where the unlimited supply of bayberriesno doubt furnished the two birds observed with food. From this remarkable island, also, we have a record of the Ruby-crownedKinglet, which Mr. Roy Latham writes was satisfactorily identified. An indi-vidual of this bird was also seen at Orient, L. I., where, Mr. Latham writes, aRuby-crown stayed throughout the winter of 1907-8, and he adds that he hasDecember records of this species during the past four years at Orient.
