10. Cinclus mexicanus Sxvains. American Water 

 Ouzel. — The following notes relate to the only specimen met 

 v\ith : 



"• My attention was called to the song of some bird which came 

 from the mountain brook running past camp. There was a 

 steep, rocky wall on the fiuther side, and the notes echoing from 

 it. and mingling with the purling of the water, sounded exquis- 

 itely sweet. On looking for the author. I noticed some ripples 

 rolling out from behind the willovys that fringed the nearer 

 shore, and soon discoyered an Ouzel dabbling in the shallow 

 water. My shot woinided the bird, but did not disable its wings, 

 for it repeatedly diyed, using them as propelling agents when 

 beneath the surface. The sun shining on the air-bubbles that 

 clung to its plumage made it look like a ball of silyer flying through 

 the water. On the surface it paddled along yer\' much in the 

 manner of a Phalarope."
