MIGRATION AND OTHER ORNITHOLOGICAL NOTES.

Mealy Redpoll ( Linota linaria). — This species was reported 
to be very plentiful at Yarmouth during October and numbers 
kept arriving, this movement continued till November 17th, 
flocks being noted coasting south on several days. At 
Lowestoft this species was not met with, but it almost 
certainly escaped notice amongst the passing flocks of finches. 
I have no record of the return passage in spring. Some 
specimens I received from Yarmouth were very pale, but npt 
so light as exilipes. 
Lesser Redpoll (Z. rufescens ). — Four on passage were seen 
on September 23rd ; this species was also fairly numerous at 
Yarmouth during October. 
Twite (Z. flavirostns).— Not met with on migration, but 
perhaps overlooked in the flocks of coasting finches. 
[Northern Bullfinch ( Pyrrhula ?najor ). — Four large bright 
coloured Bullfinches were seen on the Denes on December 
9th, and another on February 14th by Mr. Cook, who com- 
mented on their size and brightness, without previous know- 
ledge that there was a distinct Northern race. It is quite 
possible that these were the Northern Bullfinch, as there 
evidently was quite an influx about that time (see British 
Birds’ Mag., 1910-11, and the Ann. Scot. Nat. Hist.)] 
Crossbill ( Loxia curvirostra). — One was taken in a boat 50 
miles east of Lowestoft dui’ing April, 1910. On October 20th 
I saw a flock of eight coasting to the north along the Denes, 
and on September 19th one was seen in Yarmouth feeding on 
the seeds of lilac. 
Yellow Bunting ( E?nbenza citrinella). — I saw some on 
November 2nd in the marram grass by the sea which I thought 
were migrants. Some are certainly resident all the year. 
Lappland Bunting ( Calcarius lapponicus). — I obtained one 
on October 15th in a ploughed field close to the shore. On 
November 23rd and 30th, single birds were taken at Yarmouth. 
Snow Bunting [Plectrophenax nivalis). — -First ones at Yar- 
mouth on September 24th and October 6th. A few arrived
