MIGRATION AND OTHER ORNITHOLOGICAL NOTES. 609 
Nightingale ( Daulias luscinia). — One on passage August 
9th. First seen on April 21st, and a small influx took place on 
May 9th. 
Common Whitethroat {Sylvia cinerea). — The first passage 
birds were noted on August 19th, a few on passage on 27th — 
29th, and again on September 8th — 11th, the last one on 23rd. 
There was no great movement. In the spring the first was 
seen on April 11th. There was no further influx until May 5th 
and 9th, which migrants for the most part were composed of 
our local breeding birds. 
Lesser Whitethroat (S. curruca). — Passing migrants 
seen on September 22nd and 25th. The first ones did not 
arrive till May 6th, and these appeared to be our breeding 
birds. 
Garden Warbler (S. hortensis). — One on passage August 
9th ; three on passage May 9th. 
Gold Crest ( Regulus cristatus). — The first immigration of 
any size was noted here and at Yarmouth on October 6th. The 
main passage took place between the 10th and 19th, reaching a 
maximum on 17th and 18th, when they were noted at Yarmouth, 
here, and at Southwold in many gardens. On December 3rd 
one was taken on a boat 40 miles E.S.E. of this town ; this 
appears to belong to the British race, and I have at present no 
certain record of the Continental race on passage here. On 
the spring passage an influx was noted on March 29th, and 
again on April 15th. 
Chiffchaff (Phylloscopus rufus). — One of a pair, which I 
think ultimately bred here, arrived on April 14th. 
Willow Wren (Ph. trochilus). This species was not 
observed at all in numbers on passage ; a few arrived on Sep- 
tember 8th and 13th; single birds were seen on 20th — 23rd. 
The first was seen on April 4th, and a fair number in their 
haunts by 20th. An influx on May 6th and 9th appeared to be 
passing migrants. 
Sedge Warbler ( Acrocephalus phragmitis). — Several 
arrived at Hickling by April 21st.
