Historic Catalogue of Birds of Prince Edward Island - now online

Dalhousie University now has published online, an historical reprint of A Catalogue of the Birds of Prince Edward Island. By John MacSwain, Charlottetown, P. E. I. (Read 13th November, 1905; revised to 1907.)

This catalogue of the birds of Prince Edward Island has been compiled chiefly from field notes, beginning in 1895 and continued to the present time. It contains the names of two hundred and three birds seen by the writer during this period of thirteen years ; and a supplementary list of thirteen additional birds stated to occur in Prince Edward Island in the "Catalogue of Canadian Birds" by Prof. Macoun. There is a similar list of four species from "Birds of Prince Edward Island," by the late Mr. Francis Bain.
