Although Cape May warblers did not occupy any of the census plots, observations on their feeding behavior suggest that they would be quite similar to the myrtle warbler as far' as dependence on tree foliage is concerned. This is partially con
firmed by the fact that of the 18 stations studied in northern Maine, Cape Mays were present in all the lowland ones and dominant only in the fairly
open stands with mature trees-a habitat which is unsuitable for the bay-breasted but is quite satisfactory for both myrtle and Cape May.
