Abstract
wary and suspicious at first, they eventually became quite tame as they made friends with some domesticated Mallards belonging to Mr. Robert Chambers, keeper of the Canadian Gun Club near the junction of the St. Clair and the Basset.King Eiders were also reported at the bird reserve of Mr. Jack Miner, near Kingsville, Ont., a few miles south of the St. Clair.Records of the visits of the King Eider in Michigan waters are few and have been usually confined to severe winters; but, as the past winter was of unusually mild temperature, the cause of this welcome visit remains problematical.Another arctic visitor the past winter was the Snowy Owl (Nyctea nyctea), hundreds of which visited southeastern Michigan, many of them being taken for mounting and for the Zoo at Belle Isle, Detroit's beautiful park.--E•rx S. W•LSON, Detroit, Mich.An Earlier Consideration of Botaurus lentiginosus.--Withreference to Dr. Oberholser's remarks about this species (Auk, Jan., 1921, p. 80), as agreement is always a good thing, it may be mentioned that in 1915 in a list of additions and corrections to our 'Hand-list of British Birds,' it was decided to treat this bird as a distinct species (see 'British Birds,' Vol.IX, p. 6).--H.F. WITHERBY, London, Eng.Louisiana Clapper Rail in Mississippi.--Amongsome skins that Dr. Oberholser very kindly identified for me recently, was a specimen of the Lousiana Clapper Rail (Rallus longirostris saturatus).The bird, a female, was shot by me in a salt marsh at Gulfport, Harrison County, Miss., on January 18, 1919, and is in my collection.Speaking of the range of this species, Dr. Oberholser says, "Although the form Rallus longirostris saturatus has been recorded as far east as Alabama, there seems to be no published record for Mississippi."--STEPHENS. GREGORY, JR., •6 •U7'/ •t., Chicago, Ill.The Type Locality of Ortalis v. vetula--a Correction.--In 'The Auk' for January, 1921, in a revision of Ortalis vetula, we designated the type locality of typical vetula as Tampico, Tamaulipas (p.46).We have since received a letter from Dr.Call E. Hellmayr, who writes that Wagler's type is in the Mi•nich Museum.He also kindly informs us that the collector, a Mr. Keerl, did not visit the State of Tamaulipas, according to the records of the Museum, but worked in the vicinity of Vera Cruz, and then went up to the City of Mexico.It is, therefore, nearly certain, as Dr. I-Ielimayr points out, that the type was obtained in the neighborhood of Vera Cruz, and the type locality of Ortalis v. vetula should be corrected to "neighborhood of the city of Vera Cruz, Mexico."--W.DEW.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
