melodia juddi. Dakota Song Sparrow. — Abundant at Prince Albert 

 where it was a common nester. Common at Quill Lake. Fresh eggs 

 observed on June 6 and 7. No specimens taken, hence theoretically 

 referred to one of the above species. Some heavily wooded islands were 

 favorite resorts of this bird. 



93. Melospiza georgiana. Swamp Sparrow.^ — A pair of these birds 

 was seen at Prince Albert on June 7. They behaved as if their nest was 

 close by. Mr. Barnes reports it as common.

 heard in a poplar thicket on July 14.

 these birds were seen at Prince Albert on June 7. 



96. Calamospiza melanocorys. Lark Bunting. — One of these birds 

 was identified with reasonable certainty at Prince Albert.
