41. Fatco cnrysaetos, Linn. 
Is often seen on the lake shore, and it is said that a pair have nested for several 
years ina high tree on a woody point of the shore near Sandusky Bay. The 
Rev..Samuel Wright, of Toledo, now deceased, wrote me in the winter of 1852 
that he then had a young bird of this species, which was quite tame and a very 
interesting pet. It fully answered the deseription of the ‘‘ring-tailed eagle.”’ 
After the death of Mr. Wright it was promised to the writer, but escaping from 
confinement, thoagh accustomed to obey promptly the voice of its old master, it 
could not be recaptured, and at the last accounts was still lingering about the 
neighborhood of the city. 
12. Fatco Wasuinetonti, Aud. 
I am also indebted to Mr. Wright for my only knowledge of this bird as a re- 
sident of northern Ohio. The following is extracted from one of his letters. 
‘¢] have recently obtained a fine specimen of the Washington eagle, which dif- 
fers from the description of Nuttall and Audubon in several respects, the most 
striking of whieh is the color of the cere, which in my specimen is dlack. 
Length three feet; alar extent seven feet, weight ten pounds, spread of the foot 
six inches.”? The specimen was obtained near Toledo.
