643 
therefore, of the eight new species marked with a *, namely the 
Red-breasted Flycatcher, White Wagtail, Two-barred Crossbill, 
Caspian Plover, Siberian Pectoral Sandpiper, Greater Shearwater, 
Ruddy Sheld duck, and King Eider, to the 288 enumerated in the 
former list, brings the total number of species known to have 
occurred in the County of Norfolk up to the very considerable 
total of 206 species. 
Scops Owl {Scops yiu). 
Colonel Feildcn records the occurrence of a male oi this rare 
bird in the ‘Zoologist,’ 1801, p. 316, which was shot at 
Walsingham Abbey, by one of Mr. Henry Lee Warner's keepers, 
on the 21st May, 1801, and on June the 1st of the same year a 
second example was killed in a market garden, at Martham. On 
the 18th November, 1802, another, a female, was obtained near 
Holt. 
* Red-breasted Flycatcher (Muscicapa pair a, Bcchst.). 
Yet another rare migrant has to be added to those already 
recorded from Cloy; on the 13th September, 1890, Mr. Ogilvie 
shot a female Red-breasted Flycatcher there. The plumage re- 
sembled that of an immature bird, but Mr. Gunn, from an 
examination of its ovary, considers it adult (see Trans. Norfolk and 
Norwich Nat. Soc. vol. v. p. 107). 
Icterine Warbler ( Hi/ points irtcrina). 
A male example of this rare warbler was shot at Wells, on the 
4th September, 1803, by Mr. N. II. Joy. 
Barred Warbler (Sylvia nisoriu). 
On the 10th September, 1888, Mr. George Power obtained a 
second specimen of this bird on Blakeney Point, within a short 
distance of the spot on which the previous example was killed on 
4th September, 1884. 
Waxwing (Ampelis garrulns). 
In January and February, 1803, there was a rather considerable 
incursion of these birds, and several were killed in Norfolk, as well 
as in other parts of England.
