146 THE ZOOLOGIST. 



and figured in the ' Zoologist ' for 1911 (p. 174, plate iii.), is still 

 flourishing, but its plumage is getting whiter as it gets older. It 

 has now a companion hybrid,! which was bred on the same pond 

 and from the same father, by Mrs. Reynolds, who is very proud 

 of her unique pair of birds. 



Marked Gulls. 

 On January 14th a Black-headed Gull ringed in Schleswig- 

 Holstein was recovered at Woodton, and on February 14th 

 another, ringed at Eossitten, on the Baltic, at Breydon (' British 

 Birds,' p. 340). A third, also ringed at Eossitten, was recovered 

 at Stow Bardolph on December 5th (E. S. Smith). From 

 Eossitten to Norfolk is nearly eight hundred miles, but a Gull 

 does not think much of that, I imagine.
