Aegialitis semipalmata.
1889, Lake Umbagog.
September 9. Sargent's Cove.
In the latter (Sargent's Cove) found three Ring-necked
Plover feeding on a mud flat. They were absurdly tame, allowing
us to row within twenty feet or less, feeding busily the while and
apparently paying no attention whatever to our presence.
