Late Nesting of the Green-backed Goldfinch .-On September 24, 1908, I took a set of four fresh eggs of the Green-backed Goldfinch from a cypress tree on one of our city streets, disturbing the parent bird from the nest. This seems to me a remarkable occurrence, as my latest previous date for nesting of the species was July 21.-C. S. SHARP, Escondido, California.
