Birds. 9247 
Sandwich Tern. One seen. 
Common Tern. Several seen in Bridlington Bay. 
Blackheaded Gull. Common. There is a large breeding-place of 
the “ peewit gull,” as it is called, on Hornsea Mere. 
Kittiwake. Very numerous. Breeds in large numbers on the most 
precipitous part of the Speeton Cliffs. 1t was remarkable to see the 
extreme narrowness of the ledges of rock which afforded a cradle for 
the young kittiwakes ; apparently the slightest movement on their part 
would precipitate them to the bottom of the cliff. Nothing can be 
more dissimilar than the adult and immature plumage; the black 
beak and spots on the head, and the black tertiaries and band across 
the tail of the young birds, giving them quite the appearance of a 
distinct species. 
Common Gull. Frequent. 
Herring Gull. Less commonly seen. 
Great Blackbacked Gull. Three seen together. One of them, 
a young bird in immature plumage. These gulls formerly bred at 
Flamborough. 
Common Skua. Occasionally seen off the coast. I saw a very fine 
specimen of the skua which had just been shot on Filey Bay. 
Manx Shearwater. Not often seen; one shot during my visit.

An additional List of British Birds found in South Africa.—The occurrence of 
the following species in South Africa has come to my knowledge subsequently to draw- 
ing up the “ List of British Birds occurring in South Africa,” which was published in 
the * Zoologist ’ for 1863 (Zool. 8675). The birds in the following list from Walvisch 
Bay, and those from Damena Land in the previous list, were collected by Mr. C. J. 
Anderssen ; those from Natal, mentioned in both lists, were mostly obtained by Mr. 
Thomas Ayres; and to these two gentlemen I am chiefly indebted for the information 
I have obtained on this subject. 
Sanderling (Arenaria calidris). Natal, Walvisch Bay. 
Glossy Ibis (Falcinellus igneus). Natal. 
European Night Heron (Nycticorax europeus), Natal. 
Great Crested Grebe (Podiceps cristatus). Walvisch Bay, 
Pomarine Skua (Lestris pomarinus). Walvisch Bay. | 
Caspian Tern (Sterna Caspia). Walvisch Bay. 
Solan Gannet (Sula bassuna), Walvisch Bay. 
I have also had the opportunity of personally examining South-African specimens
