Excerpt from Additional Notes to Summer Birds of Flathead Lake: With Special Reference to Swan Lake The notes presented in this bulletin, when added to the bulletin Summer Birds Of Flathead Lake, University of Montana Biological Series No. 1, include the work on ornithology during the summers of 1900, 1901, 1902 and 1903. Three seasons having been spent in the Mission Mountains, on the Flathead Indian Reservation, and along the shores Of Flathead lake, it was thought best to extend the Observations in the summer of 1903. Prin. Silloway was therefore recommended to spend a portion of the time in the vicinity of Swan lake. This lake is a beautiful sheet of water, cradled between two ranges of mountains, with wooded slopes to the water's edge. It is primitively wild, with miles of woodland, interspersed occasionally with open glades. Only a few hardy pioneers have entered the region. The birds have thus not been molested by man, and a visit to the region gave opportunity for study not heretofore made. The illustrations here given are as faithful a portrayal of the region about Swan lake as can be made with the camera. Plate LIII shows the region to the southeast, with the Mission range in the background. The mountain slopes to the low summits are covered with a dense forest. Bordering the lake may be seen a fringe of willows, back of which are the cottonwoods and alders, and lastly the conifers. A large area border ing the water is swampy, shown in Plates LIV and LV. It is exceedingly difficult to get around in this region. Plate LVI shows the location of the lake with regard to the mountains, while Plate LVII shows a large por tion of the wooded valley south of and above the lake. With the excep tion of a section of country including the lower portion of the lake as shown in Plate LV all of the country shown in the photographs is in the Lewis and Clarke forest reserve.
