Nest: in cottonwood sapling in sparse group of trees along Chugwater Creek on small flint next to trunk 8' from ground compactly made of small sticks, grass, bark, grasses, and deep mud, lined with fine grass. A common species with us both in the town as well as country but more common along the water-courses than elsewhere. Its habits and song very similar to the eastern Robin which we all say occasionally in this district.
