Transcription Notes:
Agelites = Agelaius (a Red-winged Black bird) bird found in Montana
Googled species names, kept Vernon's spelling, anything I'm unsure of is in [[?]]. Didn't have a great Vernon day today with this page. Will try and give it another go tomorrow. Any help gratefully received on any of the [[?]]. If you could leave a note below of ones you find, that would help me with the rest of the project. Thanks -@siobhanleachman
from @nounandverber: First entry is Actitis--he didn't cross the first "t"
Poocactis = Poocaetes
Merula is species of blackbird but don't know why he'd omit genus if that was the case
Glyerrliga lipelola= Glycyrrhiza lepidota (Bailey misspelling)
- had a closer look at this and think he spells it Glycerrhiza lepidota - @siobhanleachman - you are a star for working out the actual species!
I'll see if I can find my Bailey notes for the other two
