118 THE BIRDS OF BRECONSHIRE. 
Ridley, of the British Museum, in 
August, 1880, and were reported by him 
to the ‘‘Zoologist.” One, a female, was 
killed by Mr. A. Crawshay at Scethrog, 
on the Usk, in August, 1885. 
SHOVELLER, Anzas clypeata. 
Very rare. One has been killed on 
the Wye, near Hay, and Capt. Sandeman 
obtained another, a male, a few years 
ago on the Usk at Danypark, Crick- 
howell, on 16th February, 1891. 
PINTAIL, Azas acuta. 
The same remarks apply to this as to 
the preceding bird. One has been killed 
on the Wye, near Hay, and, with the 
last-named bird, was, I believe, in the 
possession of the late Mr. Baskerville, of 
Clyro Court, who kindly supplied me 
with the above information. I also, about 
twelve years since, saw a Pintail on the 
Gludy Lake, near Brecon, in company 
with a small flock of Wild Ducks. Some 
Welsh books give it as Liwydig. 
WIGEON, Azas penelope. 
Common in the winter on Llangorse
