Ringed Plover ^l) 
-23 duly 1946—Dundas Hb r. Devon Island. Next to the 
snow bunting, this was the most abu ndant land bird. 
“They were seen most commonly on the gravelly, 
-re lativ e ly bar ren ridge- togg. Post evidently hah 
eggs a bout to hatch o r young just_out_o_f the nest, 
for they were just like miniature killdeers in their 
-effort s to l e ad you away by- broken win^ and tail 
fanning ruses, Their sobbing call note was 
characteristic,of the barren ridges.
