22 THE CONDOR VoL. X during the trip, in the open country; also seen above timberline, near Boreas Pass, at 12,000 feet. 35. Pica pica huds0nica. Magpie. Seen about everywhere we went, except on Boreas Pass. At Oak Creek, Routt County, we found a nest with four young, apparently about eighteen days old. 36. Cyanocitta stelleri diademata. Long-crested Jay. This species was not seen as often as one would expect. It was seen at Grand Lake, and at various points between Sulphur Springs and Steamboat Springs, and not seen again until we were coming up Eagle River, below Tennessee Pass. From Leadville to Colo- rado Springs it was seen at many places except at the highest altitudes. 37. Aphelocoma woodhouseii. Woodhouse Jay. Observed at the following' points: near McCoy; Snake River, above Lily; Douglas Spring; near Newcastle and Glenwood Springs; Eagle, and Allenton. 38. Perisoreus canadensis capitalis. Rocky Mountain Jay. Seen, of course, only at the higher elevations. One was seen at Sulphur Springs; several near Sheephor!? Pass; at Mud Springs, July 13, where they were moulting; near Kokomo; and at Boreas Pass, August 2-5, still moulting. 39. Corvus corax sinuatus. American Raven. Noted at various places in Grand, Routt, and Rio Blanco Counties. 40. Nucifraga columbiana. Clarke Nutcracker. Seen at Sulphur Springs; near Sheephorn Pass; Breckenridge; Michigan Creek, below Jefferson; and at Florissant. It is a bird which seems to be rather local in its distribution in Col- orado. 41. Cyanocephalus cyanocephalus. Pinyon Jay. Seen at a few places in or near the cedar and pinyon belts as follows: near McCoy; Snake River, a few miles above Lily; Douglas Spring; White River, below Big Beaver Creek; and 12 miles above Glenwood Springs, in the Grand River canyon. 42. D01ichonyx oryzivorus. Bobolink. As we were driving along one of the toughest roads I ever got onto, about five miles above Steamboat Springs, I saw several birds in the road and on the fences alongside which I did not at first recog- nize, then suddenly realized they were Bobolinks, a bird that I had not seen for many a year, as they are rare and local in Colorado. Here were ten or a dozen of them, both sexes, and a male was secured as evidence that I was not mistaken. This was June first; on the eighth we saw more in a meadow one and one-half or two miles below Steamboat Springs, and judging from their actions they had not yet finished mating. On the tenth we saw some in the Elk River Valley, about ten miles below Steamboat Springs. Mr. F. H. Hopkins, in Auk, Vol. 23, p. 461, 1906, reports them as breeding near Meeker, Rio Blanco County. 43. Molothrus ater. Cowbird. Seen at many places along our route, and practically from one end to the other. 44. Xanthocephalus xanthocephalus. Yellow-headed Blackbird. Seen only in a few places: between Sulphur Springs and Kremmling; a few miles above Steamboat Springs; 15 miles below Steamboat Springs; and near Gypsum a single male was seen with a flock of Cowbirds and Brewer Blackbirds. 45. Agelaius phceniceus. Red winged Blackbird. Noted frequently in suitable locations. 46. Sturnella neglecta. Western Meadowlark. Observed nearly everywhere, tho for some reason we did not notice any along the Grand and Eagle Rivers. 47. Icterus bullocki. Bullock Oriole. Seen only at Steamboat Springs and a few miles below that place. It seems strange that we did not see more of them, but that
