Horned CJeebe : C'ohjml>ii!< aurilus.—On a pond above the Swiftcur- rent Lakes, only a short distance from Many Glaciers, Mr. Steven- son Avas fortnnate enongh to discover the floating nest and eggs of the sprightly little horned grebe, whose reddish neck, pnify side crests, and bright red eyes, almost " perched on its bill, " as he says, make it a striking, cocky figure. Sometimes when diving it gets so wet that all its distinctive plumes are lost sight of and only the red neck is left to tell the tale. Careful watch should be kept of the marshy meadows of this fruitful Swiftcurrent section and similar places in the park that other nests maj' be discovered.

Only about half the size of the white-throated western grebe and the red-throated Holboell—or about a foot long—• its median, pointed crest, light ear tufts, and dusky neck distinguish it from the puffy-headed, rufous-necked little horned grebe. In man- ner, also, it is quite different from the cocky little horned grebe, which comes up from below with a s
