Humming-birds, is found, as I am informed by Mr. Hill, in tbe higher mountains 

 formed by the limestone range of the very centre of the island, as in Manchester and 

 St. Ann's. It is not until we ascend this central chain that we meet with this sweet 

 bird, occasionally in the more oj)en dells, but principally confined to the singular little 

 glens called cockpits." 



The figure is taken from a specimen in the Salvin-Godman collection, and the 

 descriptions are copied from the British Museum ' Catalogue of Birds.'
