the same station, a few were observed at 10.30 P.m., along with 
Blackbirds. From the 8th to the 19th of October the move- 
ments appear to have been continuous; on the 16th migrants 
were noted in numbers at most stations between the Isle of 
Man and the Eddystone, many being killed (S.E. and E). 
During November there were regular movements up to the
