concrete houses, situated on the north coast about a mile and a half 

 southeast of the point of the same name. There is a sandy beach 

 about a mile long at this place, while immediately to the westward a 

 wooded ridge, which reaches a height of two hundred and fifty feet, 

 runs parallel with the shore-line. The slopes of this ridge were well 

 explored by Mr. Link, and proved to be quite rich in bird-life, and the 

 locality was visited by Mr. Zappey also, who incorrectly spells the 

 name " Bibeyhagua." 



Bird Island.- — A small mangrove island in the southern part of 

 Siguanea Bay, so called because of the presence there of nesting colonies 

 of the Man-o'-war-bird and Florida Cormorant. Visited by Mr. Link 

 on two occasions, and more recently by Mr. Read. 



Bogarona. — A landing on the south coast of Siguanea Bay, used by 

 vessels plying to and from Los Indios. Mr. Link collected a few

 Link. 



Caleta Grande {Grand Inlet). — A small bay or inlet on the " south 

 coast," near its western end, visited by Mr. Link. A sandy beach

 their fishing.
