Tennessee Warbler--Vermivora peregrina (Wilson).

First observed on May 27 at Puntchesakut Lake. In the week
following it became common and the unmistakable song could be heard
coming from the tops of tall aspens where the birds themselves were
usually invisible. It was seen and heard Singing near Quesnel on
June 8 and was quite plentiful at Summit Lake in the latter part of
that month. A number of times, while I walked the length of a road
that passes through deciduous trees near the lakeshore, it was ob-
served that a male preceded me flying from tree to tree and singing
from a concealed perch in each. On one occasion, June 27, a male
flying ahead of me in this manner covered a total distance of ap-
proximately 200 yards but it was not until the end, when he sang
from a conspicuous position near the outer end of a branch, that the
bird was seen None was observed west of Prince George The only
record made during the autumn migration was at Sixteen Mile Lake
where one was observed at close range in the lakeshore brush on
August 28

Orange-crowned Warbler--Vermivora celata (Say,)..

Three seen at Puntchesakut Lake on May 8 and two on May 10
were the first recorded. May 18 was a cold, windy day but small
birds that perhaps had arrived during the night were plentiful
in the brush and aspen stands by the lakeshore. Not the least
