Siberian Thrush, Tardus sibirirur, Pall. 
Mr. Frederick Bond possessc.s a Siberian Thrush which ho 
obtained of Mr. Sniither of Farnham in Surrey, near which ])lace it 
is believed to have been killed by a Mr. Drewett, in February, 1885. 
Smither was a retired gamekeeper, and GouhU gives him a high 
character in his article on the Hartford Warbler. Mr. Howard 
Saunders has reason to l)elieve that another wa.s picked up at 
Bonchurch, in the Isle of Wight, in 1873 or 1874 by a gardener of 
the name of Saunders. 
Black-tiiroateu Thrush, Tardus afriiiu/aris, Tern. 
A young male was shot by a man named Bobinson, about a quarter 
of a mile from the town of Lewes in Sussex, on the 23rd of December, 
18G8, and was taken next day to Mr. T. J. Monk, at whoso house 
the writer has more than once had the pleasure of examining it 
.Rock Thrush, Mnufiro/a saxaUUs (Linn.). 
lias occurred once, viz., in Hertfordshire in Maj', 1843. Gould 
in his ‘ Birds of Great Britain ’ erroneously stites that this unique 
specimen is in my father’s collection. It passed into the pos.'session 
of Mr. Thurnall, at whose sale it fetched seven pounds, and is now 
the property of Mr. F. d’Arcy Newcome. 
Dusky Bulbul, Pyrnonotus ohsrunis (Tern.). 
About 18G0 Mr. C. Matthews purchased this bird at a Hastings 
poulterer’s.- As it was in the autumn, and as the Hastings 
poulterers whom I have had a good deal of experience of seldom 
have small birds which are not British, it is likely that this Ixos 
was obtained in the vicinity. I have heard its notes ring again in 
the Pine groves of Algeria, where it is not an uncommon bird, 
and whence perhaps our British example came.®

^ The Blue Thrush, the Dusky Thrush {Turduxfu-'irafiis, Pall.), the Gold- 
vented Bulbul, and the American Robin, have put in a claim for admission 
into the British list, but they must be rejected.
