I have recently learned that the Hudsonian Curlew (Numenius Hudsonicus, p. 109) 

 has occurred along the coast this year in such numbers as to render the term " rare " 

 incorrect. Mr. Geo. Bird Grinnell writes: " My brother killed Numenius Hudsonicus 

 July 20th, 1877 [near Milford, Conn.]. He saw sixteen birds of that species on that 

 day; twelve in one flock, and two pairs. Others were seen later in July by other 

 parties.'' I am informed by Mr. J. II. Sage that two specimens of this species were 

 killed, near Saybrook, Conn., August 27th, 1877.
