lities as the chuck-wills-widow. It is recorded as abundant atClinton, arriving there from the south March 31 and nesting in therocky ravines of the mountains.! It is reported also as breeding atPea Ridge, and I noted a few at Pettigrew about June 1, evidentlyon their breeding grounds. As a migrant it is reported from Helena,Newport, Monticello, and Delight, noted at the latter place March 31and September 9 to 14.
