Cardiff and I observed a Swamp Sparrow (Melospiea georgium) in a marsh along the Santa Ana River, five miles west of Riverside, California. The bird was collected and proved to be an adult female. It is now no. 739 in the Cardiff collection.-EUGENE E. CARDIFF, Bloomington, California, January 31,1949.
