H. F. Witherby were nominated to serve on a Sub-Committee, 

 and to lay before the Club at the next Meeting some scheme 

 for " obtaining information on migration within these 

 islands.' - ' 



Mr. C. B. Rickett exhibited a specimen of a Crow-Tit 

 {Paradoxornis guttaticollis) , from Fohkien, with abnormally 

 developed mandibles, resembling those of the Crossbill, 

 the upper mandible especially being greatly lengthened and 

 strongly curved. He remarked that, in spite of this de- 

 formity, the bird was fat and in good condition. 



The Chairman announced that it was proposed to place 

 in the Leyden Museum a bronze bust of the celebrated 

 ornithologist Temminck, whose great services to our special 

 science were well known. It was thought that some English 

 ornithologists might be willing to assist in this good work. 

 In such case, contributions might be sent to the President 

 of the Ornithological Union of the Netherlands, Baron 

 Snouckaert van Schauburg, Neerlangbruch, Holland. 



The next Meeting of the Club will be held on Wednesday, 

 the 18th of January, 1905, at 8.30, at the Restaurant 

 Erascati, 32 Oxford Street; the Dinner at 7 p.m. Members 

 intending to dine are requested to inform Mr. Witherby, at 

 326 High Holborn, W.C 



[N.B. — Members who intend to make any communication 

 at the next meeting of the Club are requested to 

 give notice beforehand to the Editor, also to supply 

 him with a written account of anything intended for 

 publication.]
