POSTSCRIPT. 



The foregoing Lists bear witness to the great amount of Natural 

 History interest that may be found in the metropolitan area ; and 

 a very striking illustration of there being no lack of avian visitors 

 to the immediate neighbourhood of London homes is furnished 

 by the following List of Birds that have been seen in the Royal 

 Botanic Gardens, Regent's Park — an area much nearer to the 

 centre of the metropolis even than Hampstead — to which my 

 attention was very kindly called by Mr. William Sowerby, F.L.S., 

 the secretary of the Royal Botanic Society. 



List of Birds observed in the Gardens of the Royal Botanic Society, 



Regent's Park.
