The followino- Table will give an idea of the areas of 

 arrival of the various species. 



The Common and Little Terns arrived simultaneously at 

 their breeding-hamits on both the east and west coasts, and 

 therefore appear under both the divisions A and D. The 

 White Wagtail, although chiefly migrating along the western 

 route, occurred also in the east, but no actual point of arrival 

 was recorded.

coast. 

 Ring-Ouzel, Glarden-Warbler, Wood- Warbler, White 

 Wagtail, House-Martin, Nightjar, Common Sandpiper,

B. Species arriving along the whole of the south coast, but 



first and chiefly on its western half.

 Warbler, Swallow, Sand-Martin, Swift, Corncrake. 



C. Species arriving along the whole of the south coast, but 



first and chiefly on the eastern half.

 catcher, Cuckoo. 

 13. Species arriving on the south-east coast from Essex to 

 Hants. 

 Ring-Ouzel, Whinchat, Whitethroat, Lesser White- 

 throat, Blackcap, Grasshopper- Warbler, White Wag-

The following notes about the weather have been taken 

 from the "Weekly Weather-Reports" issued by the Meteoro- 

 logical Office. No deductions have been drawn from a 

 comparison between the conditions of the weather and the 

 arrival records; but the facts are all set out so that the reader 

 can draw his own conclusions and see at a glance what birds 

 were on the move each day. We have placed the birds 

 which arrived on our coasts in a parallel column to that 

 recording the weather, and have grouped them according 

 to the area of coast on which they arrived as indicated in 

 the preceding Table.
