NOTES AND OBSERVATIONS. 



Unusual Migration Records In The 

 Vicinity of Montreal March 1921. 



No doubt the mild weather during the 

 past winter, and the abundance of frnit 

 and seeds (especiall.y coniferous seeds) 

 limited the movements of a great many 

 Northern birds. Throughout South-East- 

 ern Canada and the North-Eastern States, at 

 least in urban districts, the dearth of birds 

 appears to have been general. Of the 



customary winter birds the following were 

 seen in the vicinity of Montreal in very 

 small numbers: Snowy Owl (2) ; Saw- whet 

 Owl (2) ; Hairy and Downy Woodpeckers; 

 Snow Bunting; White-winged Crossbill; 

 Pine Siskin; Goldfinch; Redpoll; Cedar 

 Waxwing ; White-breasted Nuthatcli ; Red- 

 breasted Nuthatch; Blaek-capped Chicka- 

 dee. 



The unusual occurrences were : Herring
