The Bobolink in Idaho

Last July, near Meridian, Idaho, (ten miles from Boise), while driving in the country I saw several male Bobolinks (Dolichonyx oryzivorus) in a field formerly given over to alfalfa. It had been plowed up and sown to wheat, making a mixt meadow-growth in which the birds seemed to be making themselves very much at home. Residents of Meridian were not aware that the bird occurred there, and I did not see it in any other locality.
