Beautiful Bunting in California
Among recent additions to my collection obtained from Dr. J. A. Hornung, of this city, I find what is in all probability a new record for California. During February, 1914, Dr. Hornung spent a few days collecting at Blythe, Riverside County, California, in the valley of the Colorado River, where, at different times he found fifteen or twenty examples of Passerina versicolor pulchra feeding on roadside weeds bordering a cotton field. On February 8, he shot a female, and on the 9th he secured a male, both in winter plumage.
