The Gray Wagtail is by no means uncommon in the autumn 

 and winter season in the low meadows by the river Gipping in 

 Sutfolk, and likewise in the neighbourhood of Higham. It is 

 also frequently met with in Norfolk at the same seasons. It 

 runs upon the tops of the weeds, which are partly submerged in 

 the ditches, and probably feeds upon the Dtjtisci and Gyrini, 

 which are almost always to be found in those situations. 



3. M.fiava (Yellow Wagtail). 



This species is not generally plentiful in Sutiblk, though it is 

 pretty common on parts of the river Waveney, which divides that 

 county from Norfolk. 



Genus XVtI. Anthus. 



1. A. pratensis (Tit Lark). 



2. A. arhoreus (Field Lark). 



A common species in the neighbourhood of Harleston during 

 the summer ; and it is also found in various parts both of Norfolk 

 and Sutfolk. This bird is subject not only to an Hippobosca, 

 but likewise to a large species of Acariis. Five of these insects 

 were taken oil' the head of a lark on the first day of its arrival.
