PLATE CVIII. FIG. II. 
Whilst the grey lag goose breeds in central Europe, 
Great Britain, and even the south of Scandinavia, the 
north only seems to suit the Bean Goose. “There (Mr. 
Wolley, writing from Lapland, says) it goes to the most 
retired districts. The small flocks which pass over and 
stay a short time about Muonioniska, appear to have left 
none of their wildness in their winter quarters. They 
mostly spend the summer in marshes and moors towards 
the mountains, where men are very scarce.
