. A manual of the ornithology of the United States and of Canada [microform]. Birds; Oiseaux. MOCKINCi niRT). 321. ). (12. 1. AuniiBON, y a Uiiltli' Snake.] eviui, No. iVi^'H.) tipH of tlie wing- alliers, white; tail 3st, and natural continent, from sles of the West torial regions, is as Bra/il. Nor antic states. It isa more than a liver. It breeds at the distant western sources of the I'iatte, near the vcrj base of tliu llocky Mountains;* and Mr. liullocic saw it in the tabic land of Me.xico. The Mociting Bird rears its young, and consociucntiy displays its wonderful pow- ers, in all tlic intermediate regions of its residence in the Uniteil States to the peninsula of Florida, t It appears, in short, permanently to inhabit the milder regions of the western world in either hemisphere;! and the iiulividuals bred north of the Delaware, on this side the equator, are all that ever migrate from their summer residence. A still more partial migration takes place also, probably, from west to cast, in qiwM of the food and shelter which the maritime districts aH'ord. Though now so uncommon in that vicinity, 50 or 00 years ago, according to Bartram, they even wintered near Pliilad(li>liia, and ma<le a tem- porary abode in the mantling ivy of his venerable mansion. In summer, a few proceed as far as Rhode Island, fol- lowing the mild temperature of tlie sea-coast; but fur- ther north, they are, I believe, nearly unknown except rarely and occasionally in Massachusetts. With the ad- vance of the season, also, in the country which it inhab- its, varies the time of incubation. Early in April they begin to build in the maritime parts of Georgia, but not before the middle of May in Pennsylvania. In the winter season they chiefly subsist on berries, particularly those of the Virginia juniper (tailed red ce- dar), wax myrtle, holly, smilax, sumach, sour-gum, and a variety of others, which furnish them, and many other birds, with a plentiful repast.
