PREHISTORIC BIRDS 13 
Pelican, was a breeder, is most probable. Seven associated 
bones attributed to Cygnus musicus were found at Southery in 
Norfolk, and a tarsus referable to C. bewickit in Monmouth- 
shire.* Bones of the Crane, being large, are not infrequently 
preserved ; chief among the places where they have been dug 
up are the fens of Cambridgeshire, and at King’s Lynn in 
Norfolk. These latter, from their condition, seemed to be 
remains of no antiquity, see “‘ Norwich Naturalists’ Trans- 
actions’ (Vol. VII., p. 178). Other bones of the Crane have 
been found in County Clare, where at the same time certain 
remnants of the Greater Spotted Woodpecker and Hawfinch 
were identified.
