D’.virlT , '' ummer BlrUs of 
Pi'inoe nidvrard Island, 
Bonasa umbellus togata. Canadian Ruffed Grouse. — A few only 
were met with, although said to be abundant. A novel method of hunting 
them reached my ears. They come out upon the railroad in a certain 
section to sun themselves, and it is said the sportsman riding to and fro 
on a track-velocipede shoots them so that sometimes he can pick them up 
without stopping. I was informed by gunners that Dendragapus cana- 
densis does not inhabit the island.
