Scope and content

File contains occurrence records of birds and mammals observed in the North Bay area from 1941 to 1965. Records are arranged by species, and each record contains a list of the total number of sightings of that species by year, with a record of which months the sightings occurred in, as well as a table showing the average occurrence of sightings throughout the course of a year.

File also contains an explanatory essay about the occurrence records that includes: an explanation of the methodology by which Gould took his observations and compiled the occurrence records; a description of his observation area; a statement of the project's purpose ("to provide a record of any conspicuous population changes among birds"); some findings and conjectures based on the observations; and an explanation of acronyms used and the structure of the records. The file also includes a map of northeastern Ontario and western Quebec with an observation area marked.
