FIN-FOOTED WATER BIRDS. 



Phalaro- Visit us but seldom ; their breeding place is 

 Lapland, * and other arctic regions. 

 Coot. Inhabits Gt^eat Britain the whole year. 



Grebes. The g)^eat cvested Grebe, the black and white 

 Grebe, and little Grebe, breed with us, and never 

 migrate; the others visit us accidentally, and 

 breed in Lapland. 



WEB-FOOTED BIRDS. 



AvosET. Breed near Fossdike in Lincolnshire; but 

 quit their quarters, in winter. They are then 

 shot in different parts of the kingdom, which 

 they visit I believe not regularly but acci- 

 dentally. 

 Auks and The Great Auk or Pinguin sometimes breeds 

 in St. Kilda. The Auk, the Guillemot and 

 Puffin, inhabit most of the maritime cliffs of 

 Great Britain, in amazing numbers, during 

 summer. The black Guillemot breeds in the 

 Bass Isle, and in St. Kilda, and sometimes in 

 Llandudno rocks. We are at a loss for the 

 breeding place of the other species ; neither can 

 we be very certain of the winter residence of
