New Bird Records for Nevada
The following observations made along the shore of Lake Mead near the site of St. Thomas, Clark County, Nevada, provide new records for the State of Nevada.
Squaturola squatarola. Black-bellied Plover. On May 6, 1938, ten of these birds were observed along the lake shore. The following day no trace of them could be found. Apparently they had stopped only briefly on their flight northward.
Hydranassa tricolor ruficollis. Louisiana Heron. Observed along the lake shore on November 21, 1938. A careful search of the vicinity revealed only the one individual.
