Ornithology of the Island of Montreal. 



By W. D. Shaw. 

 The following list of birds frequenting the Island 

 of Montreal has been prepared chiefly from observa- 

 tions made by Mr. Ernest D. Winter and myself, ex- 

 tending over a period of several years. It is probable 

 that a few species have escaped our notice, as many 

 remain only a short time on the Island during their 

 migrations north and south.
