There was another large arrival on the 25th and on the 26th, when 

 many appeared in South Yorkshire. 



On October the 16th there must have been a considerable ' wave ' of 

 immigrants from the east, as this species was noted in the late afternoon 

 or evening travelling towards laud at five different lights on the east 

 coast, viz., at Cockle, St. Nicholas, Cross Sands (Norfolk) and Cork 

 (Essex) Lt.-vs., and at Orford Lt. (Suffolk). Some were also noted at 

 St. Nicholas Lt. (Norfolk) on the 20th. 



As an emigrant with other species of the Thrush-family, it was noted 

 at Dungeness (Kent) on November the 2nd, at St. Catherine's Lt. on 

 the 5th and 6th, and at Bishop Rock Lt. on November the 7th, while 

 at Ilanois Lt. (Channel Islands) it was recorded in great numbers on 

 nearly every night during the first week of November. With Song- 

 Thrushes it was noted at St. Catherine's Lt. on December the 2nd, 

 and on January the 12th at Hartland Point Lt. (Devon), this being 

 probably a weather migration. 



THE RING-OUZEL {Turdus torquatw). 



There is some evidence to show that migratory birds passed through 

 Berks and Hants about the middle of September. 



On the 27th/28th they were noted as emigrants at Eddystone Lt. 

 (Cornwall) and at Bishop Rock Lt. (Isles of Scilly) ; on the 29th/80th 

 at St. Catherine's Lt. (Isle of Wight) and Eddystone Lt. ; and on the 

 30th a flock was seen on migration in Norfolk. 



On October the 2nd migratory birds were noted in Gloucestershire, 

 and on October the 4th a few flocks appeared in various parts of Kent 

 and, apparently retarded by a strong wind, remained until the 20th. 



Between September the 30th and October the 1st migrants were 

 taken at Orford Lt. (Suffolk), and again on the 9th/10th at that 

 light, at Haisboro' Lt. (Norfolk), and at the Galloper Lt.-v. (Kent). 

 On the latter date a few were noted as fresh arrivals on the North 

 Lincolnshire coast, and some were observed coming in from the sea, 

 but these appear to have passed quickly onwards. 



Birds taken at Dungeness Lt. on October the 7th/8th and on November 

 the 0th/7th were probably emigrants. 



THE WHEATEAR (Saxicola amanthe). 



During the latter part of August, and more especially during the last 

 week, small migratory parties were noted in many counties both inland 

 and maritime, but no definite migratory waves could be traced. Some 

 were seen at Dungeness on August the 3rd/4th. 



Between August the 28th and September the 4th many birds were
