Excerpt from The Ottawa Naturalist, 1913-1914, Vol. 28: Being Volume XXIX of the Transactions of the Ottawa Field-Naturalists' Club In his paper on the birds collected or observed on the expedition, Mr. J. H. Riley enumerates seventy-eight Species, and while no new forms are described not the least valuable part of Mr. Riley's contribution is his notes on the habits of some of the more important birds, and the plumage and other varia tions noted. Altogether his list will be of great value to visitors to Jasper Park and will serve as a basis for future work in that region. AS no Species are enumerated which were not collected or noted by the Alpine Club party the list is not complete, but is all the more valuable on that account, as no doubtful species are included.
