[§ 5567. Zwo.—Hockwold Fen, Norfolk, June 1853. From 
Mr. Newcome. 
From a nest found by a man named Kettringham. As there was a 
possibility of its being a Garganey’s, one of the eggs was put under a hen 
and hatched, when the bird proved to be a male A. crecca.]

[§ 5570. Stz—Rathlin, Ireland, 6 June, 1863. From Mr. 
Robert Harvey. 
Mr. Harvey’s note is:-—“This nestful was brought to Mr. Gage by the 
herd boy of one of his tenants. The nest was found in Dallygill Moss, Rathlin. 
The 6th of June is so very late for the breeding of Anas crecca that I imagine 
the first eggs must have come to grief.”
