Pandion haliaetus carolinensis. Ball's Hill, Concord, Mass. 1897. In the afternoon an Osprey flew directly over the cabin Apr.23. carrying a large fish in his talons. Lake Umbagog, Maine. 1897. At rather long and irregular intervals during the day an over May 15. Osprey passed near our boat bearing in his (or her) talons each time a single long thread shred of bark and once a large wisp of hay or grass. Only once was it accompanied by its mate. It always followed the same course and after passing over the road near the school house dipped down into the woods beyond which it must have a nest. May 24. A Fish Hawk rose to an immense height, first over Great Island, then drifting off over the main land towards the Tyler Cove poising and flapping his wings loosely screaming cree-cree, etc. almost incessantly, keeping this up for fully 15 minutes. Finally his mate appeared soaring in great circles a thousand feet or more beneath him. He, however, kept on poising, flapping and screaming at his former level.
