Northumberland, a small flock was seen near Bamborough

Anglesea, one at Holyhead. In Hampshire, a pair were seen 
near Christchurch, and the male was procured. In Derbyshire, 
one about the year 1809, near Weston, and another was 
observed near Melbourne, in October, 1842, in company with

fired at. In Sussex this bird has also been procured. 
One was shot near Lostwithiel, in Cornwall, by Philip 
Pomeroy, Esq., about the year 1822, and another by Boughton 
Kingdon, Esq., my informant, about the year 1835, in the

and other small birds. Also one at Helston; and one in the 
Scilly Islands; and another was shot at St. Budeaux, in the 
neighbourhood of Plymouth, on the 17th. of June, 1851. 
Eor a beautifully-executed drawing of this specimen, as of 
several other rare species, I am exceedingly indebted to a 
very obliging correspondent, John Gatcombe, Esq., of Wynd- 
ham Place, Plymouth. An adult male was shot at Eastwood, 
near Nottingham, in October, 1851, as William Eelkin, Esq.,

of Worcester College, Oxford, has informed me. One at 
Chudleigh, on the 18th. of June, 1851; one at Berry Head,
