Umbagog Tringa maculata. A flock of about a dozen of these sandpipers rose from the mud-flats near the mouth of Cambridge River & whiling past within long range gave me an opportunity to knock, on a single x bird, I have a suspicion that some if not all the survivors may have been Tringa alpine but all looked alike, their notes however were unfamiliar. Oct. 18th saw a finge one at mouth of Cambridge R. Tringa maculata Shot one at the outlet. It was with two Blette head Plovers. It was amazingly tame, feeding unconcernedly while I stood within twelve or fifteen feet of it,
