Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Besides the observations of breeding birds here mentioned, it shows 21 records involving 28 birds, made between 4 May 1956 (one bird seen at Port Rowan by Winona Stewart and Gladys Hutchinson) and 23 May 1962 (one seen at Iroquois by C. V. Ellis).The number of observations has increased as follows: 2 in 1956, 1 in 1959, 3 in 1960, 4 in 1961, and (exclusive of the present nesting records) 11 in 1962.These records are distributed along the southern boundary of Ontario from Lake St. Clair, in the west, to Iroquois, east of Lake Ontario, in the east.Most of the observations were made on or near the shorelines of lakes Erie, St. Clair, and Ontario, their tributaries and the St. Lawrence River, but Angus Marsh (where one was seen on 22 May 1960) and Luther Marsh are about 55 miles (88 km) north of the Great Lakes shoreline.The nesting record here reported, plus other records summarized above, seems to indicate that the spread of the Cattle Egret in North America is continuing, in contradiction to the conclusion that Davis reached (1oc.cit.) in 1960.Also, the nesting of the species in the interior appears to be the first.Possibly the dense stand of low, dead trees, standing in water, affords a nesting site similar to those used in coastal areas.--UDoBIJI•RXI•E and W. D^N MA•s•, Ontario Department of Lands and Forests, tlespeler, Ontario, Canada.Bulwer's Petrel (Bttlwerla bulwerii) in Trinidad, West Indies.--On23 January 1961, a dead Bulwer's Petrel was found by J. B. Saunders on Soldado Rock, a small island off the southwest tip of Trinidad, West Indies (Lat. 10 ø 04' 24 •' N, Long.62 ø 00' 56" W).The bird's body was mummified and in excellent condition.It is now no.763839 in The American Museum of Natural History.Dr. Robert Cushman Murphy writes: "This constitutes a new record for the western Atlantic north of the equator.This petrel is not unfamiliar in certain seasons along the coast of Brazil, whither it flies presumably from its nesting grounds on the eastern Atlantic islands.Farther north, however, it seems to be virtually unrecorded in the western Atlantic."--

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
