Rocky Mountain Plover
Charadrius montanus
Octavo edition, plate 318
ÃÂâÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂThe skin from which I made my drawing was that of a female; and it is my opinion, that the male, when found, will have as distinct markings as those exhibited byÃÂàCharadrius melodusÃÂàorÃÂàCharadrius semipalmatus.ÃÂâÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ
