Piranga ludoviciana Western Tanager 
Fairly common breeder. Not seen after August 24. 
Progne subis Purple Martin 
A fair number seen in certain limited localities on numerous occasions. 
Last noted September 2. 
P etrochelidon lunifrons Cliff Swallow 
Quite common flying over lake La Nonne. A colony nested on the 
Henderson barns, and it is said to nest abundantly on some of the banks 
of Pembina river. 
Iridoprogne bicolor Tree Swallow 
Fairly common, nesting in dead stubs in burns and occasionally in 
boxes about the Henderson place. 
Riparia riparia Bank Swallow 
Common everywhere. Probably nesting in the cut banks of Pembina 
river which was the nearest suitable location. 
Bombycilla garrula Bohemian Waxwing 
Nests found in Fort Assiniboine region this May, but never discovered 
nesting in Belvedere area. First seen September 27. 
Bombycilla cedrorum Cedar Waxwing 
Common breeder, but not seen until June 5 nor after October 1. 
Lanius borealis Northern Shrike 
Fairly common from October 1 to close of the record October 26. 
Said by Henderson to winter occasionally. Two specimens slightly lighter 
coloured than the average eastern birds and with slightly longer wings. 
The writer is inclined to refer them to L. b. invictus. 
Vireosylva olivacea Red-eyed Vireo 
Common everywhere, seen until September 13. 
Vireosylva philadelphica Philadephia Vireo 
Noted and taken numerous times between May 27 and August 23. 
Of nine specimens, three, May 27, June 3, and August 23, are so brightly 
yellow as to be recognizable as Philadelphias at a glance, but have minute 
first primaries like the Warbling Vireo. It seems that this first primary 
distinction for this species is not as conclusive as has been generally 
supposed. 
Vireosylva gilva Warbling Vireo 
Common everywhere, but not as numerous as the preceding. Two 
specimens, May 24 and August 25, have greener mantles and clearer grey 
crowns than any other specimens they have been compared with, but they 
differ just as much from British Columbia V. g. swainsoni as they do from 
eastern gilva, in fact in our collection the colours of these two series are 
indistinguishable. The writer only refers these specimens to swainsoni on 
the basis of slightly more slender bills.
