me was Mr. Millsum's very fine Black-throated Laughing- 

 Thkush, evidently a most interesting bird and full of character. 

 The other principal exhibits were fine specimens of 

 Greater Hill Mynah, Shama, Golden -crowned Troupial, 

 Coleys or Mousebirds, Indian Barbet, and last, but not least, 

 Mr. Maxwell's very fine Wallcreeper, which carried off premier 

 honours. 



Mr. H. T. T. Camps judged the Parrot and Parrakeet 

 Classes and Mr. W. Swaysland the remainder.

Ai.r, Species of Parrakeets, including Kings, Broadtails and 

 LORIES (20). A very fine series, but many of them were by no means in 

 perfect plumage, some evidently not having left the dealers long. 1. 

 Maxwell, very rare Crimson-fronted Lorikeets, a trifle soft, at the same 

 time a unique exhibit, will be very handsome when they have been through 

 the moult, the general body colour is bronzy-green with yellow and orange- 

 yellow shaft streaks on the nape and underparts, head and nape blackish, 

 frontal baud scarlet, thighs and vent scarlet; 2, L. W. Hawkins, Stanley

 good condition and well shown; 3, Hollins. very fine Leadbeater Cockatoo;
