This species was included by Mr. Donovan in his British 

 Birds, volume 10, plate 226, but no authority was named 

 on which it was given, nor any record of the place of cap- 

 ture. In the winter of 1830, or about that time, a male 

 was shot near Yarmouth, in Norfolk, which passed into the 

 possession of Mr. Stephen Miller, a resident there, who 

 prized it very highly. Of Mr. Miller's bird, Mr. Joseph 

 Clarke, of Saffron Walden, very kindly sent me a drawing. 

 This bird is also referred to by Mr. Paget, in his Sketch of 

 the Natural History of Yarmouth and its vicinity, page 1 1 ,
