Lakeside.
Besides these Whistlers we saw a pair of Black Ducks. I
am told by the Lakeside people that a large flock of Geese a-
lighted in the lake on the 8th and another flock on the 9th while
two birds were seen on the 10th. All these Geese were seen either
between Birch and B Points or in Sargent's Cove.
