LIST OF CUMBERLAND BIRDS 
IN THE CARLISLE AND KESWICK MUSEUMS. 
By GEORGE DAWSON (CarLISLE), AND THE 
Rev. J. CLIFTON WARD, F.G.S. 
[Those marked C are preserved in the Carlisle collection, and 
those marked A in the Keswick Museum. It is not supposed that 
this is a complete list of all the birds ever found in Cumberland, 
but it is hoped that the publication of such a list may be interesting 
to local naturalists, and may prompt members of the Association 
and others to present, as occasion offers, the specimens still 
wanting in either museum. It should be added that local 
(i.e. Cumbrian) birds are alone admitted into the Keswick Museum 
collection.— EDITOR. |
