of Birds.’ 
[Report on the Migration of Birds in the Autumn of 1879, By J. A. 
Harvie-Brown and John Cordeaux. Zoologist, 1880. | 
This report gives the result of observations made by the 
keepers of lighthouse stations on the east and west coasts 
of Scotland and the east coast of England, to whom forms 
were sent by the authors to be filled in. The points on 
which information was chiefly sought relate to the date 
and time of day each species was seen, the force and direction 
of the wind, the nature of the weather, and other matters of 
interest. Messrs. Cordeaux and Harvie-Brown are doing 
excellent work in collecting these observations, and are laying 
a sound basis for deductions on the extremely interesting 
. subject of the migration of birds.

This work, we are informed, was planned by Miss Jones, 
whose death occurred before the second part was issued. Its 
continuation is now carried on by her mother and her brother, 
to whom we are indebted for the parts now before us. That 
no pains have been spared upon this work is evident at first 
sight. The drawings of the nests are very carefully done, and 
are the best representations of bird’s nests that we have ever 
seen; the figures of the eggs, too, have been prepared with 
great skill. The nests of the following birds are included in 
the four parts :—
