Abstract

This folder contains check lists of birds Eike spotted in a particular location. Checklists have dates ranging between 26 August 1950 and 17 October 1953. Checklists are typed with the names of birds of a certain region, for example, some checklists are for birds of Easter North America, some are for birds regularly seen in the National Capital Parks of Washington, D.C. Checklists may include date, observer (sometimes others observed with Eike, especially the Virginia Ornithological Society), total birds observed, number of observers, weather, time, and locality, in addition to checkmarks beside the names of birds. Some locations include Bone Island, Cobb Island, District of Columbia (Washington, D.C.), Glen Carlyn Park, Skyline, his Falls Church home, and Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge.
