June 10 - Victoria There are many mounted small animals, mostly taken by Brooks & Swanas, some of Hollister's taken at Moose Pass, and some by T.H. Keen of Massett. These have been made over from skins in a usual poor taxidermist style. Here is one specimen of "Marmota monax (Swain)", so labelled, in a case with some two marmots from the mainland. Of birds, there is a full synopti collection, valuable because of local representation. There are 3 Trumpeter Swans taken in B.C. in 1889, 1890 & 1912. A large collection of eggs and nests is on display, among which are 2 sets, 5 eggs each, 1 Bohemian Waxwing - eggs decidedly larger than the same pattern as Cedar Waxwing.
