186 REPORT ON THE MIGRATION OF BIRDS. 



APPENDIX. 



Mr. Gurney has received a batch of wings from the Leman 

 and Ower l.v. off Cromer, taken from birds evidently killed last 

 autumn ; unfortunately they are not dated, so that much of 

 their value as a record of migration is lost. They include 

 Willow Wren, Wheatear, Snipe, Jack Snipe, Ring Dotterel, 

 Robin, Sedge Warbler, Redstart, Fieldfare (three), Thrush, 

 Blackbird, Titlark (five), Sky Lark, Chaffinch (three), Great 

 Tit, Goldcrest, Reed Bunting, Wood Pigeon, Woodcock (two), 

 Starling, Swallow, Martin, Sanderling, Tree Sparrow. 



Pied Flycatcher. — With reference to Mr. J. Harvie Brown's 

 remarks (see foot-note, p. 100 of Report) on the arrival of Pied 

 Flycatchers at the Isle of May and Pentland Skerries in the 

 first week in May, 1885, it is interesting to learn that the same 

 species is also reported in great numbers from Flamborough and 

 Spurn at the same period, viz., the first week in May ; it was 

 also observed in Norfolk on the 9th. At Flamborough, as 

 Mr. Bailey informed me, a great many came in on the 3rd, 

 with a N.E. wind, and in company with male Redstarts. At 

 Spurn, Mr. P. W. Lawton states that it has been more numerous 

 than he ever before knew it. (' Naturalist,' June 1885, p. 250, 

 foot-note),
