Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cassinia, a Bird Annual, 1912, Vol. 16: Proceedings of the Delaware Valley Ornithological Club of Philadelphia So far then as the report of this single season of 1791 is con cerned, it indicates that birds have not changed, during the last 100 years, their times of spring arrival. Two of Barton's birds have not been used in the above calou lation. One of these, the Red-headed Woodpecker, winters sparingly at the present time in favorable localities near Phila delphia, while the other, the Towhee, is apparently much more common near Philadelphia now than in Barton's time and arrives much earlier than the date noted by Barton.
