The opinion generally entertained respecting the extensive
dispersion of the Black-cap Titmouse, has in all probability
originated from the great resemblance which it bears to the Carolina
Titmouse, Parus Carolinensis, that species being now known to extend
its spring and summer migrations as far eastward as the State of New
Jersey, where it has been found breeding by my friend EDWARD HARRIS,
Esq. of Moorestown. The Black-cap, on the other hand, is rarely
observed farther south, and then only in winter, when it proceeds as
far as beyond the middle portions of Maryland, from whence I have at
that season received specimens in spirits, collected by my friend
Colonel THEODORE ANDERSON of Baltimore. Westward of the Alleghanies it
extends as far as Kentucky in winter, but at the approach of spring
returns northward. In Pennsylvania and New Jersey some are known to
breed; but as the Carolina Titmouse breeds there also, it is difficult
to say which of them is the most numerous, they being so like each
other that one is apt to confound them. In the State of New York it is
abundant, and often rears two broods in the season; as you proceed
eastward you may observe it in all places favourable to its habits;
and, according to Dr. RICHARDSON, it is found as far north as lat. 65,
it being in the Fur Countries the most common bird, "a small
family inhabiting almost every thicket." None were seen by Mr.
TOWNSEND either on the Rocky Mountains or about the Columbia river,
where, on the contrary, Parus Carolinensis is abundant, as it is also
in the Texas, where I found it breeding in the spring of 1837.
Although bearing a considerable resemblance to the Marsh Titmouse of
Europe, P. palustris, it differs from that species not only in colour,
but more especially in its habits and notes.
