54. Tringa canutus, Knot. A migrant, probably not as rare as usu- 
ally thought. Mr. Stoddard took two specimens, both in spring plumage, 
June 2, 1917, and September 2, 1916, at Millers, and I took one at the 
same place from among a flock of Sanderlings, September 25, 1916. 
55. Pisobia maculata, Pectoral Sandpiper. An abundant migrant. 
56. Pisobia bairdi, Baird’s Sandpiper. A rare migrant. A few may 
be seen during August and September on the beach near Millers, which, 
by the way, seems to be the best place for Sandpipers, especially the 
rare ones. Mr. Stoddard secured two fine specimens at Dune Park, 
August 23, 1916, and two at Millers, September 2, 1916. 
57. Pisobia minutilla, Least Sandpiper. A common migrant. The 
small troops of scurrying sandpipers on the beach are largely made up 
of this species. August 13, 1915, I saw about ten at Millers. 
58. Pelidna alpina sakhalina, Red-backed Sandpiper. A common 
spring migrant over the whole neighborhood, so it must at times be 
found here also. Mr. G. F. Clingman took a specimen here, on the 
beach, June 1, 1879. 
59. Hreunetes pusillus, Semipalmated Sandpiper. A common mi- 
grant along the beach, where it may be seen in the company of the 
Least Sandpiper, Sanderling and others. August 14th, 23rd and 30th, 
1916, they were plentiful on the beach at Millers. 
60. Calidris leuwcophaea, Sanderling. An abundant migrant. The 
earliest record for the fall migration is July 18 (1911), when I took 
two from a flock of fifteen at Millers. From then on they are common 
up to about October 1. One taken by Stoddard, August 28, 1916, at 
Millers, was still in breeding plumage, but after that date all were in 
the fall dress. June 2, 1917, Stoddard saw several in full nuptial 
plumage near Dune Park. 
61. Limosa haemastica, Hudsonian Godwit. Probably a rare mi- 
grant. Mr. Charles Brandle took one on Wolf Lake, Indiana, Septem- 
ber 15, 1898, which is close to our region. 
62. Totanus Melanoleucus, Greater Yellow-legs. Migrant. Mr. J. 
G. Parker has seen them as early as March 30 (1895) at Liverpool. 
63. Totanus flavipes, Yellow-legs. Of similar status as the last. 
64. Helodromas solitarius solitarius, Solitary Sandpiper. A not un- 
common migrant. May 20, 1916, I saw one at Mineral Springs. 
65. Catoptrophorus semipalmatus inornatus, Western Willet. Mr. 
F. W. Wocdruff refers the Willets seen along the beach near Millers to 
the western form. He has taken many there. It is seen occasionally 
from August 1 to the 15th of September, also late in April or early in 
May. (Woodruff. ) 
The chances are that both the eastern and western forms occur here.
