MEADOW PipiT, oR TITLARK.—A common resident, re- 
ceiving additions in autumn, yet not nearly so 
common as in less cultivated districts. 
Rock Pipitr.—The Rock Pipit is sometimes shot at Yar- 
mouth, and is perhaps found in small numbers all 
along our coast, more especially from Weybourne to 
Lynn, in the spring and autumn. At Blakeney I have 
frequently seen it, and it may be found there even in 
December. 
[ScanDINaviAN Rock Prpir (Anthus rupestris).— A 
doubtfully distinct species; but whatever rank be 
finally assigned to it, it has occurred three times in 
Norfolk. ] 
RKICHARD’s Pipit.—Richard’s Pipit has occurred six times, 
and, strange to say, five of them were killed by the 
same individual, the late Sergt. Barnes, P.C., of 
Yarmouth. 
BEARDED TiTmMousE.—The triangle of ‘‘ broads ” between 
_ Lowestoft, Norwich, and Stalham is the last breeding- 
place in Great Britain of the Bearded Titmouse, or 
‘Reed Pheasant,’’! as the frequenters of those watery 
wastes term it. Here, though far from common, the 
date of its extinction is probably distant. 
HEDGE SpaRRow.—This familiar resident and general 
favourite is as common in Norfolk as it is everywhere 
else. 
BuLLFIncH.—The bullfinch is rather common in some parts 
of the county, and is one of the few birds which it is 
pardonable to shoot in our kitchen-gardens. 
GREENFINCH.—Common everywhere. In June, 1879, I 
hada nest in my garden containing two white eggs and 
two suffused with brown. There was no mistake, as I 
saw the Greenfinch on them. They are generally 
thickly speckled.
