» This eagle is quite frequently seen along our coast, even in summer, 

 but as it is not known to breed, and being a bird of strong flight, it is prob' 

 able that it is making daily excursions in search of food. 



t Those that remain during the summer are generally immature birds, 

 probably the young of the previous yeaf. See remarks on page 151, under 

 Larus argentatus. 



X These three species are given upon the authority of Mr. E. C. Green- 

 wood, of Ipswich.
