Comprehensive Description

Sitta carolinensis Latham

This rarely used host was previously (Friedmann, 1963:64–65) known as a cowbird victim only 5 times, from Pennsylvania, Illinois, and New York (once). Bull (1974:537) mentions 3 New York instances, 2 of which are obviously additions to our earlier records.
