THE WILSON BULLETIN— June, 1922 
4. Water Turkey or Anhinga ( Anhinga anhinga). 
Two which were thought to be of this species were seen on Long 
Pond August 28, 1917. 
5. Wood Duck ( Aix span so). 
A common summer resident, especially abundant on Swan Pond. 
6. Whistling Swan ( Olor colnmbianus) . 
Locally known as “ White Crane.” Seen in 1917, 1918 and 1921, be- 
ing especially abundant in 1917. I counted twelve in a single flock at 
the head of the sandbar in early September, 1917. Seldom have I, in 
many years of bird study, seen anything to compare with the beauty of 
the lakes, with their old cypresses standing in a clump of knees and 
duck-weeds and with two or three Whistling Swans perched on the 
gnarled and broken limbs. 
7. Great Blue Heron ( Arclca herodias). 
Fairly common every year except 1915. 
8. Little Blue Heron ( Florida cwrula ). 
One or two seen every year except 1921. 
9. Green Heron ( Butorides vircscens virescens ) . 
Not seen in 1915 and 1916, but fairly common the other years. 
10. Black-crowned Night Heron. ( Nycticorax nycticorcix ncevius). 
One seen in 1917 among the lily-pads on Long Pond. 
11. Sandhill Crane ( Grus mcxicana). 
Fairly common in 1915; a few seen in 1916, 1917 and 1918. A very 
vivid picture in my mind is that of a Sandhill standing at full height 
and motionless on a drift at the lower end of a small wild lake, appro- 
priately called Lost Pond. 
12. Coot ( Fulica amcricana) . 
A few seen in 1915 and 1917.

17. Solitary Sandpiper ( Hclodromas solitarius solitarius). 
Very common in 1918 and 1921, but not seen the other years. 
18. Spotted Sandpiper ( Actitis macularia) . 
A very few seen in 1918 and 1921. 
19. Killdeer ( Oxyechus vocifcrus) . 
Very common on the sandbar, but rarely seen in the bottoms.
