GUILLEMOT. 



It varies in having the black ftreak behind the eye much 

 broader in fome birds *. 



This is much lefs common than the foolijh Guillemot; and only 

 frequents our coafts in winter: is rarely feen on thofe of Wales-, 

 but in the Firth of Forth, in Scotland, met with, along with the 

 Black-billed Auks, in innumerable flocks, in purfuit of fprats -, they 

 are there called Morrots ; and all retire before fpring 7. Are 

 frequent alio, along with the young or Black-billed Auks, on our 

 weftern coafts, in the winter ; having received them from Teign- 

 mouth in Devonfiire, the middle of December 1783. We have 

 great reafon to fufpeel that thefe birds are no other than the 

 foolijlj Guillemot in a young ftate : as to lhape and make they no 

 ways differ ; and as to their being white on the fides of the head 

 and throat, it is fo with the young Razor-bills ; and we have 

 fcarce a doubt, but that they change with age, in the fame manner 

 as thofe birds do.
