THE BOOK OF MIGRATORY BIRDS 2Q 



To an enthusiastic wild fowl shooter I can imagine a 

 fortnight at Holy Island in hard weather would be a de-

 would always have the chance of a few shots, and, at all 

 events, have the pleasure of seeing wild fowl, that is, Brent 

 geese, in considerable numbers.
