The Foreign Bird Club. 
Notices to Members. 
Unpaid Subscriptions : There are still a few of these unpaid, and I 
trust those who still have overlooked them, will accept this as a reminder 
and send a remittance at once to our esteemed Hon. Treasurer, and thus 
save both his time and the club's funds in making further ai^plications for 
same. We may add that the prompt payment of subscriptions is necessary 
for the facile working of the club, as illustrations etc. have to be prepared in 
advance. A little thought in this respect will save the Honorary Officials 
much needless correspondence and inconvenience. 
Members' Gatlierings at the Zoo : The last of these for this year will 
take place on Saturday, September 17th. Rendezvous : Small Birds' House, 
at 2-30 p.m. A copy of " B.N." carried in the hand forms a ready means of 
recoernition. 
The Show Season : Members attention is specially directed to the 
rules etc. relating to same at end of inset.

Month's Arrivals. 
There has been quite an influx of Tanagers on the market during the 
past month — I received the following : " I have a consignment of 100 Tana- 
gers — Magpies, All Green, Festive, Blue, Olive — about 20 varieties — would 
you like to come and see them ? J. D. Hamlyn." Unfortunately I was 
unable to get there for about a week and the rarer species were then sold, 
but there was still a fair number of Blues, Tricolour, Superb, Magpie 
Green, etc. 
That well-known dealer, A. E. Jamrach, has received a consignment 
of Flamingoes, Rufous Tinaraous, Bell Birds, Californian Quail, Concave- 
casqued Hornbills, Hooded Cranes, Rheas, Haast's Apteryx, Whit« Peafowl 
and Griffin Vultures. 
The various dealers have been offering — some of the species are still 
on sale — the following numerous species of Tanagers : — Festive, Blue, Tri- 
colour, Scarlet, Rufous-thi-oated, Violet, Copper-headed, All Green, Neck- 
lace, Golden-shouldered, Superb, Petri's, etc. Various species of Sugar 
Birds have also been on offer, together with many uncommon species of 
Troupials, Buntings, Parrakeets, etc. W.T.P.
