(no. 2.)                                                               
source for one invariably accompanied or rather preceded the
other. The first was a pecuilar pulsating whistle, hollow in
tone and closely similar to the sound made by the wings of the
Golden-eye. this was immediately followed by a strident crar-
ar-r-r-r which was usually repeated two or three times. It was
always preceded by and sometimes alternated with the whistle.
Both sounds were loud enough to be easily heard at the distance
of a mile or more. They came from the middle of the Lake and
were distinctly made by some water fowl. Once the bird - what-
ever it was - flew up and down our camp.  Will thought that the
whistle as well as the crar-ar-r-r-r was of vocal origin, and I
had the same impression.
