L.Umbagog. 1890. Oct. Four visited camp daily & worked the greater part of every day carrying off bread. Never came at daylight & rarely before sunrise Notes wonderfully varied. Commonest whe-e-e-o and a noise easily & perfectly imitated by smacking tongue on roof of mouth rapidly. One sang one morning very like a Brown Thrasher-but sotto voce-, and for several minutes. One much tamer than others. Allowed approach to within 3 ft. When two came together they would often quiver half open wings like young birds begging for food. One on Megalloway made notes exactly like gasping cry of Barred Owl, ah-a-a-a. They often took their food to nearest spruce branch & left it there for a few minutes but always soon removed it to further off. They carried beans (baked) and small pieces of bread by filling the throat first & then the bill. Larger pieces of biscuit were carried separately in the bill. Occasionally one would carry off half a biscuit in its feet. In the flight the feet are carried hanging down so that they show both held together under the abdomen & sometimes hanging at nearly length of legs. Perisoreus canadensis.
