BIRD NOTES FROM THE ISLE OF MAY IN 1913 ill 



these we found many others too weak to fly, and nothing 

 but skin and bone. 



We again tender our most heartfelt thanks to the 

 Commissioners of Northern Lights for so kindly permitting 

 us to return to the Isle of May. The observations made 

 there prove it to be an excellent migration station, and we 

 are deeply indebted to the Commissioners for their courtesy 

 in permitting us to pursue our researches on the island. 

 All our dear friends on the May were again more than 

 good to us ; we do not think there was a kind act they could 

 do which was left undone, nor any help they could give us 

 which we did not receive. Special mention should be made 

 of Mr Baigrie's help in our ornithological work ; he has 

 also made excellent notes while we were not on the island, 

 which will be incorporated in the next Report. To Mrs 

 Baigrie and to Mr and Mrs Ross grateful thanks for much 

 kindness and hospitality are also due.
