Harelda hyemalis. MAINE, (L. Umbagog.) Harelda glacialis. 1885 Oct. 17 Shot two in the lake near B. Point. Both were young birds. They were very tame and we paddled to within close range before they seemed to alarm us when they suddenly stretched up their necks and took wing - too late. They looked small and very white & I at first mistook them for Snow Geese. Oct. 23 A flock of nine in the lake off Moll's Rock. On the smooth water they looked many white when their breasts were turned towards us and I discovered them near Harelda glacialis Red Squaw 1889. Maine, L. Umbagog. A flock of six of these birds appeared in the Lake early on the morning of Oct. 19th, alighting off the mouth of R. Brook Cove 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 whatever 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.
