One or two of these, such as the White Wagtail and the Great- 
crested Grebe, may be regular visitors, the former in the summer, 
the latter in the winter. There is at least one breeding-station of 
the Great-crested Grebe in Wales, on Llangorse Lake, in 
Breconshire, and we think it must regularly appear on the fine sheet 
of water at Stackpole every season. The Lesser Whitethroat is 
almost unknown in the county. We have heard of Bearded Tits 
from Breconshire, and from both the eastern and western sides of 
Carmarthenshire, and think it probable a few pairs may nest in 
South Wales. It is singular that we should know of but one 
instance of the Nuthatch having occurred in Pembrokeshire ; it 
appears to be a scarce bird throughout the south of the Principality. 
The Pied Flycatcher is fairly common in most parts of Wales, and 
is known to breed in Carmarthenshire, preferring woods at some 
elevation where there is old timber, but it does not extend so far as 
Pembrokeshire, in which it is very rarely seen, and where we have 
no instance of its nest. With the exception of the Green 
Woodpecker, and the Tree Creeper, scansorial birds are rare in 
such a comparatively treeless county as Pembrokeshire. The 
Hoopoe is not rare. We have no recent instance of the Marsh 
Harrier having nested in the county; it was once a common 
resident. Montagu’s Harrier is very rare, and we only know of a 
single nest. The Kite is only a rare occasional visitor, and it is 
long since it has nested in the county. From evidence we have 
accumulated we think it probable that in the adjoining counties of 
Cardigan, Carmarthen, and Brecon there may be at the present day
