Attention may be drawn to one or two points in the 

 autumn-migration. The first is the early dates at which a 

 good many species commenced to take their departure. It 

 becomes clear, the further investigations are carried, that the 

 interval between the termination of the spring-migration and 

 the commencement of the autumn-movement is an extremely 

 short one. The second point is the enormous migrations 

 reported during the first three weeks of November, which 

 seem to have exceeded those recorded in October. The 

 great movements do not seem to have begun until after the 

 second week in October. In this connection attention may 

 be drawn to Mr. B. B. Riviere's observations on the north 

 coast of Norfolk, which have been published in detail in the 

 'Zoologist' (1913, p. 177 et seq.). These have added con-, 

 siderably to our knowledge of the coasting character of some 

 of these autumn-movements. 



Our best thanks are again due to the Master and Elder 

 Brethren of the Trinity House for the continuance of their 

 permission to make use of the services of the light-keepers, 

 and to the latter as well as to our many inland observers, 

 without whose kindly co-operation our enquiry could not be 

 carried on. Notes from other published sources have also 

 been carefully abstracted and their facts incorporated with 

 those furnished by our own recorders.

* The later immigrants probably lauded as far west as the east of 

 Devonshire.
