AA, PODICIPES GRISEIGENA. 
All these seem to have been taken by the Pastor himself, and in a 
lake or lakes where no other species, as he declared, is found. Of all 
the last are the only three of which it is not certain that they came 
out of the one nest, as the Pastor said he was careful to mark or keep 
them separate as he found them. They were all taken this yéar and 
principally for me. . .

Given to my brother Edward when in Denmark, the last picked out of the 
water by Herr Regenburg on the occasion of his visit to Soborg in company 
with Herr Herluf Winge and my brother, whose account of the place is as 
follows :—“ On arriving at the Aro (public house) we walked down to the mose 
(moss) and got into a boat. We soon saw a Red-necked Grebe, Black ‘Terns, 
and Black-headed Gulls. The land round the mose is cultivated down to its 
edge. It is perhaps half a mile long, running from north to south, and is mostly 
edged with common reed, then thick masses of a large species of Equisetum, 
with vast quantities of water-lil’es and the curious pine-like weed (Stratzotes 
aloides ?) which grows at South Walsham, and floats upright, the roots only 
touching the bottom. The whole of the mose is nearly covered with this, and 
there is consequently very little open water. We tried to force our way to the 
east, but were prevented by the mass of weeds. There were in this part about 
four Black Terns. I could neversee moreatatime. They evidently had eggs,
