ORNITHOLOGICAL NOTES FROM DEVON 
CORNWALL. 
AND 
By Joun GatroomBeE. 
AT midsummer the nesting operations of the Herring Gulls at 
Wembury were in full swing, and many eggs and young birds 
in the down might be seen from the summit of the cliffs. I am 
sorry to say numbers of nests were robbed, and I fear some of the 
old birds shot, judging from the fresh cartridge-cases which were 
lying about, and from the dead birds which were constantly picked 
up alongshore. 
* This name is often applied to the Red-throated Diver.—Ep.
