spring and autumn. — Waring Kidd. At Aldershot, a village 
near Farnham, the ring ouzels appeared in some abundance on 
the 8th of September last ; they remained about the neighbour- 
hood till the 19th, after which none were seen. In a few speci- 
mens that were shot, the white was much more observable than 
in those birds which were killed when they passed this place in 
their spring migration. — T. Mansell, Zool. 444. The migration 
of the ring ouzel in spring and autumn, as mentioned by White, 
is still observed. — James Lewcock. 
This bird comes from its native haunts in the north at the end 
of September or beginning of October, and returns thither in the 
spring : it does not stay on either passage more than from ten 
to fourteen days. 
Common Sandpiper I consider a Passing Visitor : the same 
remarks as applied to the ring ouzel are applicable to this spe- 
cies ; in confirmation see in Mr. Bartlett's Ornithology of Kent, 
Zool. p. 265, Mr. Gurney's Norfolk Birds, Zool. p. 1324, and for 
additional information on the migratory movements see Zool. 
pp. 927, 1129 and 1132. I do not think this bird breeds fur- 
ther south than Yorkshire. I find I have the following entries 
of its periodical arrival at Thetford, Norfolk : — 
Spring migration. May 23, 1834. *May 17, 1836. 
Autumnal do. Aug. 11, 1834. Aug. 16, 1835. 
— J. D. Salmon. 
Green Sandpiper. The green sandpiper is frequently met 
with near Godalming. — W. K. I have every reason to believe 
the green sandpiper breeds in Surrey, having seen a very young 
one shot near Godalming, with the primaries incompletely de- 
veloped. — E. Blyth in Mag. Nat. Hist. 2nd Series, i. 605. I 
saw a flock, consisting of eight individuals, at the Hammer 
Ponds, on the 16th September, 1845. This bird must properly 
be considered a Passing Visitor. — J. D. Salmon. 
5. Occasional Visitors. 
It seems to me that the foregoing birds, one hundred and 
twenty in number, are all that can fairly be considered as hav-
