Lotamus flamius 1896 Lake Umbagog. August 17 (in company with 28 in company 3 / Canoe Run a J. underwriters) with 2 J. underwriters Pier Colls House. September / 2 (with 28 3 (a gentleman) 6 100+ 7 (20 J. underwriter with 19, mule) Wier Sargeant (3 dead shot) 1 jail first.) The ordinary call note is phere- phere a sometimes phere is often a double but sometimes only a single whistle (there are I think never more than two whistles). The pitch is lower than that of the call of J. melanocephalus or rather lower than all except the finish (or the next to the finish) note of their call. Both syllables of the double whistle are on the same key. The tone is smooth & pleasing. In general appearance and movements the Lesser Yellow Leg is an exact counterpart of the Greater. It has the same graceful, measured step when feeding, the same exquisite grace of outline, proportion and posture when standing erect and still, the same tilting motion of the body and lengthening & shortening the neck when alarmed or suspicious. Its flight also is essentially the same as that of its big relative but it is rather less swift and it loses the effect of momentum so conspicuous in wider time of the aerial evolution of the larger species. 62
