This Society has been formed for the Protection of Wild 

 Birds, by enforcing the existing laws ; by rewarding successful 

 prosecutions ; or by any action that may be desirable in special 

 cases. 



The formation of the Epping Forest Bird- Sanctuary is an 

 instance of what may be accomplished by private effort. The 

 measures already taken by the Society have in all probability 

 prevented the extinction of the shore-breeding birds. Member- 

 ship consists in a subscription of not less than -is. 6d. yearly to 

 the funds of the Society. All who are interested in Birds in 

 our County are requested to join the Society.

The Curator will be very glad to hear from any amateur 

 naturalists or beginners, whether members of the Club or not, 

 willing to collect selected groups systematically in their own or 

 in specified localities (in accordance with plans to be laid down) 

 for the benefit of the Club's Museums. Such facilities and 

 assistance as are in his power will be given to earnest workers, 

 and aid in determining species will be afforded. It is also 

 hoped that in time some return in the way of duplicates may 

 be possible.
