Although I saw no Spruce Grouse during this autumn, they were said to be very numerous in suitable places. Mr. Charles R. Sherman told me that he met with nearly double as many as last year, when they were more numerous than they had been for a number of years previously. He saw them repeatedly along the Tyler Road, and on one occasion he met with a flock of five composed of three hens and two cocks in perfect plumage. It would seem as if they were getting back to their former numbers in this region. Lake Umbagog, Me. Sept. & Oct. 1893. Canace canadensis 1893 Oct. 16 Mr. Sherman who has been hunting Partridges daily since the 1st tells me that he seen the Spruce Partridge but once when he came upon a flock of six in the old locality the rocknutuck brush on the road to the Tyler place.
