Catch for your next prayer meeting talk a chewink or a brown thresher.
"Around The Tea-Table"
T. De Witt Talmage
He does not hang timidly upon the skirts of our rural life, like, say, the thrasher or the chewink; he plunges in boldly and takes his chances, and his share, and often more than his share, of whatever is going.
"Ways of Nature"
John Burroughs
The chewink is more constant in his visits, as is also the golden-winged woodpecker.
"Birds in the Bush"
Bradford Torrey
