In the March issue of Naturalist he reports that a large flock of Lapland Longspurs were seen throughout January and early February in a field near the Darlington Provincial Park. On Jan. 21 last, Mr. Scott saw a white-winged scooter near Bonny Brae Point. On Feb. 3 a white-crowned sparrow visited and remained at his feeding station. It is unusual to see these two birds in this area in the winter months. Between Feb. 4 and 18 he :.w a white-fronted goose sev- eral times in company with a flock of ducks. This species is very rare on the eastern half of the continent. The normal range is west of the Mississippi Val- ley. In recent years Mr. Scott has observed six species of birds in the Oshawa area that do not appear to be included in the list of species observed in the Toronto area. They are: snowy egret, glossy ibis, common Two Unusual /_ Two teenagers were injured when this car ran out of con- trol on Highway 401, Friday afternoon at the Liverpool road, skidded on its roof and came to rest in the centre grass boulevard.
