Scarce in the south during summer, and then found mostly in 

 the west. Breeds occasionally in Cornwall {Mr. E. H. Rodd) ; 

 regularly in North Devon {Rev. M. A. Mathews), in South 

 Devon {Mr. J. Gatcombe), near Herringston in Dorset {Mr. H. 

 Groves), at Chemies {Gould, ' Contrib. to Oruith.' 1849, p. 137), 

 and by the little river Chess {Rev. B. Burgess), in Bucks and 

 in Gloucester, where it is rare {Rev. F. J. Scott) . Is believed to 

 breed also in Somerset, Wilts, Hants, and Kent (as mentioned 

 by Yarrell). Breeds more numerously in Stafford and Shrop- 

 shire, and from Derbyshire northwards throughout Scotland, 

 though considered by Macgillivray very rare north of Inverness. 



Doubtless nidifies in South and North Wales, though I have 

 no record of its doing so.
