THE BLACK-THROATED THEUSH. 



Another eastern bird of well-marked migratory disposition 

 and a northern range sufficiently high to send it occasionally 

 on its autumnal passage wandering over western Europe, is 

 the Black-throated Thrush above figured. Of this species 

 a young male example, shot near Lewes, December 23rd, 

 1868, was on the same day taken to Mr. T. J. Monk of 

 that town, and now forms part of his choice collection. 

 Mr. Gould recorded the capture in ' The Ibis ' for January, 

 1869 (p. 128), and a note to the same purpose from the 

 owner of the specimen is printed in tlie ' Zoologist ' for 

 February (s.s. p. 1560), while the latter permitted Mr. 

 Rowley, who himself saw the bird before it was skinned, to 

 exhibit it at a meeting of the Zoological Society on the 14th
