BULLETINS FROM , BIRDLAND
WINIFREBE. mum '
SPECIAL PROPERTY
Travelling across Canada from the Rockies to Newfoundland we meet much the same birds all the way, although certain species are confined to the Prairies. others to the Atlantic border. because in these regions only can they find essentials for existence. However, a few species live in very restrict- ed areas, seldom, if ever, appear- ing elsewhere.
Alberta proudly possesses Trum- peter Swans. These grand birds, at one time found over a. large section of the country, have grad- ually dwindled in numbers. Yel- lowstone Park, a sanctuary in the United States, supports about 400 the year around. Otherwise only a few hundred on our Pacific coast and a mere handful, fairly re- cently discovered summering in northern Alberta's Cypress Hills. are known to be left.
Picturesque Whooping Cranes. once nesting across a wide stretch. are counted by individuals. Not more than 30 migrants remain, probably most of these breeding in Mackenzie, at the west end of Great Slave Lake, and in the fall passing through Saskatchewan to a sanctuary in Teaxs.
On account of the southern tip of Ontario reaching far into the United States, that province is fortunate in having many summer residents unknown to the others. one species actually remains there permanently: the gorgeous Cardi- nal. Although now fanning out northward, only a few have been found beyond the borders of On- tario, in Manitoba and Quebec.
Very strange indeed is the fact that Ipswich Sparrows never nest anywhere but on Sable Island, Nova Scotia. Great interest in this is shown by ornithologists throughout North America. The island being a mere speck, it is thought that eventually it will be washed away. what then will be- come of these little birds? Even in winter they are "choosey", mi- grating aleng a narrow flyway and settling for some months on the very edge of the continent, stretching as far south at Georgia.
These actions cannot, however, be called unique, for Ross' Goose is only known to breed in, one tiny area: on the Canadian main- land in the far north, opposite King William Island. In migration it passes through Alberta.
Considering how many, many Ganncts winter in the south, it is remarkable that they were all born either on Bird Rock, Anti- costl island, Bonaventure Island (where there are the most birds), or two very small islands of! New- foundland. Because of their beauty and interesting nesting habits they have drawn the attention of many bird watchers from far and near.
