NOTES. 



By J. McG. Baxter, M. D. 



The southern migration of our wild geese, in the fall of 1905, 

 was very late. I find the following notes taken at the time: 

 "Two large flocks of wild geese seen Dec. 17th, flying down river. 

 Howard Allan says he saw a flock flying north Dec. '22nd. The 

 lighthouse keeper, K. McLennan, at Escuminac, reports a flock 

 seen between 15th and 20th January but cannot be sure of exact 

 day." 



A Patriarchal Goose. 



Wm. Stothart, Ferry villc, op})osite Chatham, has a goose 

 43 years of age last April, 1906, and still c)mparatively smart and 

 healthy, although it finds difficulty in keeping u}) to the rest of the 

 flock when walking quickly.
