BIRDS OF THE BRITISH ISLES. 



american Stint. 



The American Stint {Tringa subminuta miniitilla^ Vieillot) 

 is an exceedingly rare straggling autumn migrant to the 

 British Isles, and inhabits the Northern Nearctic Region. 

 This stint closely resembles the little stint in colouration of 

 plumage, and is considered by some naturalists to be merely 

 a local race of Trinm minuta.
