Abstract
T HE following notes were all taken at or in the near vicinity of my ranch in the valley of the Frenchman River five miles west of Eastend. During the winter of 1921-22 a considerable number of rosy finches (Leucosticte tephrocotis) were seen on this ranch and at other points in the valley. I saw the first, a male, on November 27; it was taken and sent to the Provincial Museum at Regina. On December 1 I saw another male bird feeding in the stackyard in company with a flock of redpolls. On January 18 two more were taken out of a flock of about thirty. On March 18 we secured a nice pair in our stackyard which we also sent to Regina. All the specimens were tephrocotis and are probably the first to be actually taken in Saskatch-
