The Birds of Pembrokeshire. XXVil. 
ascribed to the Rock Dove from Ramsey, but as we could not be 
certain as to their identification, have not ventured to place them in 
our cabinet. 
The rocky islets in the neighbourhood of Ramsey require to be 
briefly mentioned, as they are all tenanted by numerous sea-birds. 
About four miles to the westward of St. David’s Head lie the North 
Bishops, consisting of a good-sized grass-topped rock, and several 
smaller rocks, with passages between. On these may be found all 
the commoner sea-birds, and on the larger rock there is an abundance 
of Puffins, and some Greater Black-backed Gulls. To the south- 
ward of these rocks, at a distance of about two miles, is Careg- 
Rhosson, a cluster of rocks very like the North Bishops in character, 
consisting of one large rock covered with grass, and surrounded by 
smaller rocks with deep water channels between them, through which a 
strong tideway runs. These also are well patronized by sea-birds, 
and contain, perhaps, the largest colony of Greater Black-backed Gulls. 
These rocks are about three miles to the westward of the north 
end of Ramsey. Next to Careg-Rhosson comes the Daufraich, or 
Dyfich, about a mile to the south, a rocky islet inhabited by 
Guillemots, and a few Razorbills; and to the south-westward, 
again, about a mile distant, stands the South Bishop, upon which a 
fine lighthouse is erected. No birds breed on this rock, but many 
pass it on migration, numbers frequently dashing against the light. 
There are several smaller rocks between the Bishops and Ramsey 
that make the coast dangerous, and the strong tides very often 
occasion high seas.

On looking at amap of Pembrokeshire it will be observed that the 
most westerly part of the county, on the north, is occupied by 
Ramsey Island, and that on the south by Skomer Island; from a 
line joining these two islands, St. Bride’s Bay runs inward towards 
the east for about eight miles, the coast line forming about three- 
fourths of a complete circle, Newgale Sands lying at the north- 
eastern extremity of the bay. From the northern end of these sands, 
not far from Newgale Bridge, there is an extensive sea view, the
