42. Xanthocephalus icterocephalus. Yellow-headed Blackbird.—An accidental straggler from the west. Mr. Comeau shot a male of this species in his door yard, at Godbout, early in September, 1878.[[116]]
43. Quiscalus purpureus. Crow Blackbird.—Rare. Sometimes seen in flocks in spring.
44. Corvus corax. Raven.—A common resident. May 12, 1882, Mr. Comeau found one of their nests on the face of a cliff about half-way between Godbout and Point de Monts. It contained four full-fledged young that must have been at least three or four weeks old.
45. Corvus frugivorus. Crow.—A common summer resident, sometimes wintering. I have observed that the Crows here find much of their food along the beach at low water.
46. Cyanocitta cristata. Blue Jay.—Resident but not very common.
47. Perisoreus canadensis. Canada Jay.—A tolerably common resident.
48. Tyrannus carolinensis. Kingbird.—Not rare. Earliest seen June 9, 1882.

50. Chordeiles popetue. Nighthawk.—A common summer resident. First seen June 5, 1883. I saw Night-hawks flying about overhead nearly every day while at Godbout, both in July, 1881, and July, 1882.
