Abstract

In transcribing one of the few remaining John James Audubon journals in 1929, Corning reported that Audubon heard “Iowa Buntings” in eastern Arkansas in mid-December of 1820. This reference has been copied repeatedly since then, and some have speculated as to what an “Iowa Bunting” might refer. Examination of the original journal, however, revealed that he was referring to the “Towe Bunting” or eastern towhee (Pipilo erythrophthalmus).
