 B. W. Fenton secured a specimen at Brant, N. Y. , in 

 1866 My son Ed. Reinecke in 1891 shot several 

 near Delaware Park. I advised friends across 

 Niagara River in Sherkston, Canada, to keep a 

 sharp lookout, and through them got in possession 

 of about 20 specimens which are mounted in my 

 collection. I presented several to the Buffalo 

 Society of Natural Sciences, and two to the Nat. 

 Museum in Stockholm, Sweden. They arrived 

 from the north-west shortly after Christmas. A 

 few specimens were seen several years afterwards. 

 Accidental. In 1911 quite a number were seen in 

 this part of the state.
