. Nests and eggs of North American birds. Birds; Birds. 302 NESTS AND EGQS OF. 453. Mexican Crested Flycatcher. 453o. ARIZONA CRESTED ELYCATCHER. Myiarchus mexicanus maglster Ridgw. Geog. Dist.—Western Mexico, north to Southern Arizona. Mr. W. E. D. Scott found this bird to be common in spring and summer about Tucson, Florence, Riverside, and In the foot-hills of the Catalina Mountains up to about 450 feet, in Southern Arizona. About Tucson it frequents the mesquite and giant cactus groves. In the Catalinas, at an altitude of 4000 feet, a nest was found built in a deserted Woodpecker's hole in a dead sycamore stub; it was entirely simi- lar to that of M. crinitus, even to the traditional snake skins, and contained five eggs nearly ready to be hatched, very similar to those of M. crinitus, but a little larger. About Tucson the birds nest commonly in deserted Woodpecker's holes in the giant cactus. From three to five eggs are laid. An egg of this Flycatcher iii my cabinet, taken in Pinal county, Arizona, March 21, 1886, measures 1.03x.70. 454. ASH-THROATED FLYCATCHER. Myiarchus cinerascens Lawr. Geog. Dist.—Western United States from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific, north to Oregon, Nevada, Utah and Colorado, south over the highlands of Mexico to northern Central America. The Ash-throated Flycatcher is a common species west of the Rocky Mountains; in some places it is abundant. It is described as being shy, and of retiring habits, preferring the solitude of deep, shady forests where its insect food abounds. It is usually sole possessor of the tree in which its nest is built; all intruders are vio- lently assailed and compelled to retreat. The nests are placed in natural cavities of trees of almost any kind, in a deserted squirrel's Or Woodpeckers' hole. The clutches of eggs range from four to seven, ordinarily five or six, and the nesting season is in May and June. Old excavations of Galrdner's Woodpecker are com- monly resorted to by this species in California
