THE WILSON BULLETIN— June, 1922 
4. Water Turkey or Anhinga (AnJiinga anJiinga) . 
Two which were thought to be of this species were seen on Long 
Pond August 28, 1917. 
5. Wood Duck (Aix sponsa). 
A common summer resident, especially abundant on Swan Pond. 
6. Whistling Swan (Olor columljianus) . 
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 {Ardea herodias). 
Fairly common every year except 1915. 
8. Little Blue Heron {Florida ccerula) . 
One or two seen every year except 1921. 
9. Green Heron {Butorides vlrescens virescens) . 
Not seen in 1915 and 1916, but fairly common the other years. 
10. Black-crowned Night Heron. (Nycticorax nycticorax ncevius). 
One seen in 1917 among the lily-pads on Long Pond. 
11. Sandhill Crane (G^yis mexicana). 
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 (Fiilica americana) . 
A few seen in 1915 and 1917.

17. Solitary Sandpiper {Helodromas solitarius soUtarius). 
Very common in 1918 and 1921, but not seen the other years. 
18. Spotted Sandpiper (Actitis maciilaria) . 
A very few seen in 1918 and 1921. 
19. Killdeer (Oxyechiis vociferiis) .
