FIFE AND KINROSS ORNITHOLOGICAL 

 SOCIETY'S EXHIBITION. 



The annnal Exliibition of the Fife and Kinross Ornithological 

 Society was held in the Com Exchange, Kirkcaldy. The number of 

 specimens far exceeded that shorm in any former year, and many of 

 them were of very high merit. The Poultry consisted of upwards of 

 230 pens. There were nearly fifty cages of Pigeons, and 131 specimens 

 of Canaries. The prizetakers were : —

CORK POULTRY SHOW. 



The eighth Exhibition of the Soath of Ireland Poultry, Pigeon, 

 Cage and Song Bird Association was held in the Athenseum on the 8th 

 inst., and, successfcl as the preceding Shows ofthis useful Society have 

 been, far exceeded them in the essentials of quality, variety, and nom- 

 ber. The prize birds were noble pairs. The Pigeon department, 

 always very full, was even more numerously represented than at any 

 previous Show. The song bird department included Canaries, Linnets, 

 Blackbirds, Tlirushes. Nightingales, Larks, Finches, &c., a collection 

 as beautiful as it was interesting. 



The chief attraction of the Exhibition was the splendid collection of 

 birds exhibited by Mr. Corbett, of Castlcconnell. This gentleman, 

 whose well stocked avaries are so well known among connoisseurs, had 

 a selection including three Golden Eagles — magnificent birds — White 

 Pheasants, Golden Pheasants (exceedingly beantifnl birds). Kalege, 

 Silver, Bohemian, Chinese, Pied. Hybrid, and Common Pheasants, all 

 superb specimens of their several cla.?se3, besides a noble pair of Black 

 Australian Swans, a pen of Japanese Pea fowl, a number of Peregrine 

 Falcons, with hoods and bells; a Goshawk, an Iceland Falcon, a 

 Virginian Owl, a trained Cormorant, a laughing Kingfisher, and 

 a number of Bice, Red. and Yellow Macaws, Cockatoos, Parrots, 

 Parroquets, &c. Among the Cockatoos was one remarkable bird, sombre 

 and sage as Poe's raven, but of snowy whiteness, who sat thought- 

 fully on the highest perch in the hall, at intervals putting a series of 

 peremptory inquiries to his inspectors. This remarkable bird was had 

 by Mr. Corbett, twenty-five years ago in this city, from Mr. Hen^y 

 Keating, who stated the bird was then close on thirty years old, so that 

 the feathered patriarch must have seen a full half-ceutury. and was 

 yet hale and talkative enough to see many another year. The Gos- 

 hawk, a fine bird, hooded and belled, and, with an atmosphere of 

 chivalry and tournament about him. was presented to Mr. Corbett by 

 a hawking club in Paris, and has all the fierceness of his species, his 

 owner frequently kiiliEg Babbits with him. Air. Corbett offered 

 nothing for competition. 



The arrangements of the Show were capital, and among not the 

 least attractive features of the Exliibition were the unique cages in 

 which the song birds were confined, some of these being remarkably 

 attractive in size and design. The following is the prize list : —
