108. =Icterus galbula.= BALTIMORE ORIOLE.—Horsbrough records the nesting of the Baltimore Oriole at Red Deer and Farley pronounces it common. Neither seem to be acquainted with Bullock’s. In our collections are specimens of _galbula_ from Edmonton and _bullocki_ from Medicine Hat where, however, Spreadborough also noted the former. Possibly the division between the two occurs somewhere between the two cities and the Baltimore is the form at Red Deer.
109.★ =Icterus bullocki.= BULLOCK’S ORIOLE.—Only two orioles seen and those two of this species. Taken at Camp 11, Little Sandhill Creek, August 29.
110.★ =Euphagus carolinus.= RUSTY BLACKBIRD.—One specimen, Alix, Alberta, April 22, 1914, by Horsbrough who infers in his annotations that it is only a migrant at Red Deer though Farley reports it as with Brewer’s,—“a very common spring and fall migrant and quite plentiful breeding along the streams in the willows.” I was hardly prepared to regard this as a breeder in this locality.
111.★ =Euphagus cyanocephalus.= BREWER’S BLACKBIRD.—Generally distributed throughout the river valley but nowhere exceedingly common. Young noted a large migrant flock at Camp 11, Little Sandhill Creek, the middle of September. Specimens, Camp 1 and 11. Farley reports it breeding along the streams in the willows.
112.★ =Quiscalus quiscula.= CROW BLACKBIRD.—Only a few seen at Camp 1, about Brock’s Lake where they were nesting in Flicker holes. One specimen, Camp 1, another Buffalo Lake, August, 1915.—Horsbrough. Regarded as common by all correspondents.
113. =Hesperiphona vespertina.= EVENING GROSBEAK.—Farley says,—“The Evening Grosbeak is not regular in winter. It comes for about a month about every other winter, always feeding on the seeds of the Manitoba Maple.” Red Deer Specimens, May 6, in Fleming’s collection.
114. =Pinicola enucleator.= PINE GROSBEAK.—Farley says,—“Pine Grosbeaks are fairly common all winter especially along the rivers in the spruce,—never saw them after May 1.” Horsbrough lists them under _P. e. leucura_ on J. H. Fleming’s determination based upon a bird with an imperfect bill. I have examined this bird but the subspecific characters are so faintly indicated in our comparative series that I prefer to withhold judgment upon the determination.
