IC/L Setox on the Birds of fVis/er» Manitoba. [April 



94. Accipiter velox. Sharp-shinned Hawk.— Common summer resi- 

 dent of Red River Valley. Taken on the Souiis {Cones). Rather rare 

 on the Big Plain. Anives April 15; departs October 15. 



95. Accipiter atricapillus. American Goshawk. — Tolerably com- 

 mon fall and winter visitant on the Big Plain and about Winnipeg. Not 

 noted during the breeding season ; usually appearing in August. 



96. Buteo borealis. Red-tailed Hawk. — Tolerably common sum- 

 mer resident of the wooded regions all over. Apparently complementary 

 of the next, which is found in more open country and on the prairie. 

 Arrives April 15; departs October 15. None that I took appeared to be 

 referable to the form krideri. 



97. Buteo swainsoni. Swainson's Hawk. Common Henhawk. — 

 Vers abundant summer resident all over; breads perhaps twice each sea- 

 son. Have seen two black specimens. Arrives April 15; departs Octo- 

 ber 15. 



98. Buteo latissimus. Broad-winged Hawk. — Very rare summer 

 visitant on the Big Plain. More common and probably breeding in Red 

 River \'alle_\-. 



99. Archibuteo lagopus sancti-johannis. American Rough-legged 

 Hawk. — Tolerably common fall visitant on the Big Plain and about 

 Winnipeg. Less common in the spring. 



100. Archibuteo ferrugineus. Ferrugineus Rough-leg. — This spe- 

 cies is doubtless Manitoban, as Dr. Coues found it breeding on the Pem- 

 bina Mountain, and I have seen a specimen taken immediately to the 

 west of the Province. 



loi. Aquila chrysaetus. Golden Eagle. — Very rare, but apparently 

 resident on Big Plain and along Red River. 



102. Haliaetus leucocephalus. Bald Eagle. — Very rare summer 

 visitant on Big Plain and on Red River, probably breeding. • 



103. Falco peregrinus anatum. Duck Hawk. — Much like the Gos- 

 hawk in movements and disti-ibution. Probably breeds in the neigh- 

 borhood of the large lakes. Qiiite common on the Big Plain, about 

 August. 



104. Falco columbarius. Pigeon H.vwk. — Common fall migrant on 

 Big Plain, Riding Mountain, and in Red River Valley. Norway House. 



105. Falco richardsonii. Richardson's Merlin. — P robably Manito- 

 ban. Taken by Dr. Coues on the boundary at the headwaters of the 

 Souris. 



106. Falco sparverius. American Sparrow Hawk. — Abundant sum- 

 mer resident all over. Throughout the Winnipegoosis region. Arrives 

 April 20; departs late in September. 



; • 107. Pandion haliaetus carolinensis. American Osprey. — Fish 

 Hawk. Not yet taken in Manitoba, though it doubtless occurs, as it is 

 given, "Common around Lake Superior and at Churchill River" {Bell). 

 Occasional at Qii'Appelle. North to Barren Grounds {Richardson). 

 These with other records surround without actually touching our Prov- 

 ince.
