border, two years two months and two and a half months 

 later, and one in Lincolnshire one year eight months 

 later. The north coast of Yorkshire (one year and 

 nine months) and Grandcamps les Bains, Calvados, 

 France (one year and four months) furnish the only 

 other occurrences of interest, unless we include one in 

 Northumberland, one year and three months, and one 

 in south Lancashire (six months). The rest were 

 recovered in their parent-county and in the adjoining 

 counties of Durham, Westmorland, and Dumfriesshire 

 within three months. Three found dead in the nest are 

 ignored altogether. 



(5) Greystoke Park, Mid-Cumberland. — One out 

 of 14=7.1 per cent. The only recovery from this 

 guUery is a most interesting one, as the bird was picked 

 up dead two years and eleven months later, in the 

 breeding-season, on a gullery at Tentsmuir in Fife, N.B., 

 and was evidently breeding there. 



(6) Walney Island, North Lancashire. — Eight out 

 of 474=1.68 per cent. One occurred in Cornwall (two 

 months) and one in co, Wexford, Ireland (eight months), 

 and one in Norfolk (one year and seven months). The 

 remaining five were reported from Lancashire, one one 

 year four months later, and the others witliin three 

 months, one of the latter in the south, and the other 

 four in the north of the county. 



(7) WiNMARLEIGH MoSS, NORTH LANCASHIRE. One OUt 



of 167 = .59 per cent. One return from north Lancashire 

 two years and seven months later. This gullery is now 

 practically extinct. 



(8) Delamere Forest, Cheshire. — Seven recovered. 

 Two of these were obtained in Glamorganshire, south 

 Wales, two years one month and ten months later, one 

 in Monmouthshire, south Wales (three months), one 

 each in Flint, Yorks. and south Lancashire, within from 

 two to seven months, and one in co. Cork, Ireland, one 

 year and four months later.
