I found a nest April 3 containing two rotten eggs, at which I was surprised, as I had thought it too early for eggs.

A single specimen was taken near the house at Allaire's April 23, being the only one seen in the valley. In the Dragoon mountains, they were abundant in suitable places. Thryomanes bewicki bairdi.
