 Empidonax traillii. Traill's Flycatcher. 



Otocoris alpestris arcticola. Alaskan Horned Lark. 



Pica pica hudsonica. American Magpie. * 



My observations led me to believe that this bird inhabits 

 only the barren grounds. A few were seen above timber on 

 the Kenai Mountains, and it was very common along the 

 coast and islands about the Alaska Peninsula. 



It becomes a nuisance in the settlements of the latter 

 region, and many are shot and poisoned during the winter 

 months. 



Cyanocitta stelleri borealis. Kenai Jay. 



This Jay, described as new by Mr. Chapman, is generally 

 distributed throughout the Kenai Peninsula, but nowhere 

 abundant. 



Perisoreus canadensis fumifrons. Alaskan Jay. 



Corvus corax sinuatus ? Raven. 



During the summer and fall many ravens were seen about 

 Homer spit, where they feed along the beaches or about the 

 buildings of the settlement. 



Corvus caurinus ? Northwest Crow. 



Found along the coast as far north as Valdez. They were 

 very common on the flats and beaches near Juneau, in com- 

 pany with eagles and gulls. They were observed at Valdez 

 as late as December 26th, and no doubt winter there. 



Scolecophagus carolinus. Rusty Blackbird. 



Pinicola enucleator alascensis. Alaskan Pine Gros- 

 beak.
