A l lock of six of these birds t xuiivifit I i ^tq the Lake aarly on 
the morning of Oct. I9th, BiAB b Unn off the mouth of B. Brook Gove 
I chased them about for several hours, but found it impossible to 
get within gun-shot of them. In fact they invariably flew before 
we were within two hundred yards. The early morning was calm, the 
middle of the day somewhat windy, but the change of conditions 
seemed to make no difference what every in their- habits. Through my 
glass I distinctly saw that four of the flock were adult males. 
The other two were either females or young birds. These were the 
only examples of this species which I identified, with certainty.
