During the early months of 1912, considerable movements 

 due to weather-influences were recorded, chiefly on the part 

 of "Thrushes," Starlings, Larks, Waders, and Wildfowl, and 

 these will be found briefly recorded in their appropriate 

 sections. Amongst them attention may be drawn to the 

 remarkable irruption of the Little Auk. 



With regard to the autumn-migration of 1911, there is 

 nothing to which attention need be specially drawn. The 

 weather during the early autumn was unusually warm and 

 fine, and singularly devoid of influences tending to hold up 

 the stream of departing migrants. Consequently, observa- 

 tions were difficult to make and our summer-birds seem, for 



* Arrivals on the eastern half of the south coast were probably those 

 of passage-migrants only. 



i" The later immigrants probably landed as far we^t as the eost of 

 Devon.
