The Zoologist— March, 1871. 2497 



Market, Mr. J. H. Gnrney, jun., saw thirty more, all young birds, 

 which were said to have come from Yarmouth. The occurrence of 

 this species in such numbers is very unusual on our coast. On the 

 20th a single bird was shot near Lynn. 



Little Stint and Godtvit. — At the same time with the pigmy 

 curlew, four little stints and two bartailed godwits, all immature, 

 were shot on Breydon. 



Pomarine Skua. — A fine adult bird was shot near Lynn on 

 the 20th. 



Crossbills. — On the 24th a fine red male crossbill was shot, out 

 of a lurnip-field, near Hanworth. See also ' Zoologist' (S. S. 2383), 

 for a curious note on the same species. 



October. 



Wryneck. — A single example was killed as late as the 3rd of 

 this month, in a garden at Lammas. 



Spotted Crake. — A young bird shot at Somerton on the 12th. 



Ring Ouzels. — Two shot on Mousehole, near this city, on the 

 14th. 



Gray Phalurope. — An immature bird, from Yarmouth, seen in 

 Leadeuhall Market, by Mr. J. H. Gurney, jun., on the 17th; and 

 another, also immature, was killed at Stalhara on the 19th. 



Pomarine Skua. — An immature bird in Leadenhall Market on 

 the 17th, and four more on the 26th, all from Yarmouth. 



Gannet. — A young bird was caught in a field at Dunton, near 

 Fakenham, by two crow-keeping boys, about the 10th of October; 

 no gales at the time to account for its appearance inland. 



Shore Larks. — These birds again made their appearance on our 

 coast about the middle of this month, when I saw two apparently 

 young birds from Sallhouse beach, and heard of two or three more 

 having been killed. 



Rednecked Grebe. — A fine bird with reddish throat was shot at 

 Yarmouth on the 9th. 



Longtailed Duck. — An immature female was killed at Yarmouth 

 on the 17th.

 Cromer on the 11th, and four later, in the neighbourhood of 

 Lynn.
