Birp “Escapes” 1N HotpEerness. — The following 
instances of ‘‘escapes’’ have recently come under my notice: 
Amadina sp.—One shot out of a party of three at Patrington 
in October, 1897, by Mr. T. Straker; now in the possession 
of Mr. J. A. Fisher, Aldborough. Cardinals (igneus / )—This 
brilliantly coloured bird was observed for several days on 
Mr. J. Robinson’s farm at Elstronwick in the summer of 
1899, and was ultimately caught amongst some thorns. It 
was wounded, but had quite recovered when I saw it in July, 
and was still alive in August, 1900.—T. Petcu, B.A., B.Sc. 
Late Breepinc oF Birps 1n HoLpDERNEss. — The 
following instances of late breeding occurred in 1g00:— 
Ring dove, two eggs, Aldborough, August 18th; Reed 
bunting, five eggs, Hedon, August 25th; Sedge warbler, 
young birds just out of nest, Aldborough, September rst; 
House martin, young in nest, Aldborough, September 4th ; 
Lark, nest with three young birds overturned by reaper, 
Aldborough, September 5th.—T. Percu, B.A., B.Sc. 
Witp Pants 1N THE East Parx.—Ina quiet corner near 
the greenhouses in the East Park is a large bed devoted 
entirely to the cultivation of wild flowers. Amongst these 
are many which would prove useful to botanists and members 
of the Club in their studies. The plants are arranged in 
natural order, and a list of the species growing has been 
prepared by Mr. C. Waterfall, and is kept by him for reference. 
Mr. F. Judson, who has charge of the collection, would be 
glad of plants not at present represented in the collection. 
Perhaps members will bear this in mind whilst on their 
rambles.
