their decision as to its presence here in the early part of the 

 nineteenth century. 

 An albino Wood-Wren was caught at the end of July, 1910, near 

 Drumlanrig (Durisdeer). 



[THE REED WARBLER. This species has now occurred more 

 than once in Scotland; but only on migration.] (p. 30.) 



THE GRASSHOPPER-WARBLER was heard and seen in the 



Cairn valley on several occasions last spring. 



THE BRITISH DIPPER ne.sted in its accustomed haunt on 

 Capel Burn in 1909, 1910, and 1911, so that this nesting-site 

 has now been resorted to annually for one hundred and twenty- 

 six years by a pair of Dippers, (p. 36.) 



THE BRITISH MARSH-TITMOUSE. It now seems probable 

 that my records under this head should apply to the BRITISH 

 WILLOW-TITMOUSE (Parus airkapillus Kleinschmidli ). 

 The only specimen that I have actually examined in the flesh 

 was shot near Clonrae (Tynron) on July 20th, 1911. It was 

 sent to Mr. H. F. Witherby, who identified it as a juvenile 

 British Willow-Titmouse. This species differs from the 

 British Marsh-Titmouse in having a brownish-black, not glossy 

 blue-black, head ; a more graduated tail, and brown edgings to 

 the secondaries, (pp. 40-42.) 



THE GREAT GREY SHRIKE. One was obtained near 

 Dumfries in the winter of 1907. One was seen in Canonbie 

 parish not far from Scotch Dyke, on February 24th and 

 March 1st, 1911, as I am informed by Mr. George B. Wilson. 



[THE RED-BACKED SHRIKE. This species would perhaps 

 have been better placed within S(]uare brackets. It has not 

 "been known to breed occasionally in south-east Scotland," 

 though it has been supposed to have done so.] (pp. 56-57.) 



THE WAXWING. The specimen found in a cupboard at 

 Capenoch (Keir) has been ascertained to have been sent home 

 from Russia in 1854. (p. 58). 



THE SPOTTED FLYCATCHER. I have recently seen a 

 letter from Sir William Jardine to an English correspondent,
