With ten yards of them ( A. rnaculata ) was a Red Phalarope 
sometimes swimming, sometimes walking on the grass. Shot the 
Phalarope.

Leonard's Pond. 
As Jim came down the pond he passed within 20 yds.of two 
Red Phalaropes. After the Ducks had gone we went after the Phala- 
ropes and I shot one on the water and the other as it rose. They 
were just outside the grass in the open water. They occasionally 
turned over on their sides like Little Auks.

Lake Umbagog. 
Tyler Cove. 
Y/hile chasing these birds about 7/e saw a Phalarope whicn 
we followed for more than a mile. It was very restless alighting 
for a moment and then flitting on a hundred yards or more and 
pitching down again. Melvin saw two of these birds. 
I think they were Red Phalaro'pes. The one I saw uttered a single 
sharp, short, shrill whistle (zeep). 
Jim came and reported a Duck and a Phalarope in the next 
cove. The Duck proved a Whistler which I ambushed and shot. The 
Phalarope I could not find. (This bird was doubtless a Red 
Phalarope. W.B., Dec., 1907).
