The island is about three-quarters of a mile long and about half a mile wide, pry. bahly somewhat over a square mile in area, It is covered with vege- tation, except on the beach and the flat rocks where the gulls nest, It is the property of the Federal Department of Transport, and is a Dominion 13ird Sanctuary, At one time there was a naviga- tion light, and the light house still stands, but it is empty and dark. The light keeper's house had al. most disappeared, but great clumps of lilacs marls the spot where it stood. In the past, Southampton wasan important shipping point, and the government built moles stretching almost to the island.. These moles, or piers, were built: sometime in the 80's, but have long since fallen into disuse and the waves made great gaps in them, The vegetation of Chantry Is- land is a queer mixture of cultiv- ated plants such as garden iris, lil- acs and others, in addition to the same native flora that is found elsewhere along the shore of the mainland. Here the dominant plant is the poison ivy which grows luxuriantly in most of the drier situations. Trees are bal- sam, white cedar, and white pine with some elms to he seen, but the poison ivy seems to choice out elms in most areas. Reeds and sedges dominate a large part of the centre of the island which is of_ ten flooded at high water. The herring gull colony of about ten thousand birds, is along the boulder beach of the eastern and southeastern shores. A larger colony of ring -billed gulls, estimat- ed at twenty thousand birds, is con- centrated around a bay at the southwest corner of the island. Un_ like the herring gulls, the ring - billed makes no nest, but lays its eggs on the flat rocks, where bush- es are growing in the cracks and crevices, The two gulls differ in many respects in their breeding colonies, and do not seem to mingle as each has its own ecological niche that appears to suit it, for egg -laying and raising young. On June 10th I was invited to witness the handing of young galls on this island. For the .benefit of readers who are not acquainted with bird banding, an explanation may be in order. Bands are small aluminum strips that can he fas- tened around a bird's leg. They have a serial number on each and an inscription, "Notify Biol. Surv., Washington, D.C." This is the clearing house for all banding on this continent. Our federal government is allotted, a block of hands, which it, in turn, distributes to our bird handers each year. They are of several sizes, as a bird like a heron can carry a large band, while those birds smaller than a sparrow would have correspondingly small. hands. The bands are called "rings" in Eng- land, and the native word for ring is used throughout the continent of Europe. The Germans, I am told, were early users of this method of tracing a bird's flight on Its migratory journeys. To come back to our work on Chantry Island, great strings of bands were hung on each operator so that they could be used consec- utively. For the 'banding of gulls, pliers were used to secure and bend each one, and to lock it on the bird's leg. The nestlings of the herring gulls were to small to band and the larger young escaped to the water, leaving the medium sized birds hid.. den under logs or bushes. These were banded, and, as they are me- dium in size, they are most abun- dant, for the great hulk of the birds are neither early nor late in their nesting. The herring gull, makes a nest of dried beach plants, and will often place green leaves over the eggs. In contrast, the ring -billed gull does not seem to make any nest, and the eggs are laid on the hard, flat reeks. Although herring gulls and ring - billed gulls are similar in size and coloring when adult, and only a trained observer can distinguish one from the other in the field, their behaviour on the nesting col- onies is quite different, The het - ring' gull seems to be indifferent to intruders unless they eome near a particular nest, when the grill that is acting as the guard, puts up a great clatter, diving down re. peatedly to within inches of one's head. The ring.bill:ed gulls, in con - treat, scent to act More as a group, and if one nest is disturbed, the whole colony takes to the air in protest, As far as I could a1eertaih, only ane parent was present, the other 401.0 either ignored -or taught manncr4t by a snapping bill.
