On the 24th of June I saw a flock of fifty curlews near Bear Eiver. 

 It was a rainy daj", and they were running about among' the sage-brush, 

 (artemisia.) Upon my near approach they took to wing, and after cir- 

 cling about for a few minutes settled down again. They were quite 

 common at Salt Lake, and north to the Xorth Fork of Snake Eiver.
