摘要:

Sincewriting my former article, which appeared in ‘The Ibis’; 1896, pp. 185–198, I have found several species breeding near Lucknow which are not mentioned in that list. In my later labours I have been most materially helped by Mr. P. J. Lucas of this station, who not only takes a great personal interest in ornithology, but possesses a very intimate acquaintance with the language and customs of the natives. By his help I have been able to get the villagers to keep a look‐out for nests and to bring in word, and I have thus obtained the eggs of several birds which I had previously sought

摘要:

Thisbird is very local in its distribution. Personally I have observed it only in the neighbourhood of the Lanwi La, on the Kashmir side of the pass, for a distance of twenty miles down the Wurdwan River, which rises from the foot of the great Bhutkol glacier, along the surface of which is the trackway over the Lanwi La. Across the pass I have seen the bird at Dunore, the first camping‐ground on the Ladakh side: from thence to Suru village and fort, along the valley of the Chiloong River to its junction with the Suru River, and below this for about seven miles down the Suru towards Sank

摘要:

Amongstthe Waders, a class of birds I have had unusual opportunities of watching for many years along the shores of Kingsbridge Estuary, South Devon, the Bar‐tailed Godwits have always been a great attraction. The striking change of plumage from winter to summer, their erratic appearance at the times of migration, and the desire to raise this group above the level of that hen‐pecked one of Phalaropes, to which they have been likened in their habits of courtship and nidification, have induced me to follow the Godwit in his coming in and going out ever since I could tell one bird from anot

摘要:

Idonot think it needful to give, in this Introduction, more than an outline of the voyage to which it refers. ‘The Ibis’ cannot fairly be asked to concern itself with personal adventures, but rather with an account of the birds. We left Tromsö on June 15th, sighted Bear Island about one o'clock on the following day, and on the 17th inst. fell in with light scattered ice in N. lat. 76° 10′. All that day we went through the ice, sighting, towards evening, Horn Mountain and the Spitsbergen

摘要:

CharlesBygraveWharton, whose death we mentioned in our last number, was the second son of the late Rev. H. J. Wharton, Vicar of Mitcham, Surrey, and elder brother of the late H. T. Wharton (see ‘Ibis,’ 1896, p. 159). In early life he took an active interest in bird‐life, and during a residence in New Zealand, where he took part in the campaign against the Maoris in 1868, he made, though he never published, many notes on ornithology. From September 1874 to May 1875 he lived in Corsica, and on his return he contributed to this journal (Ibis, 1876, pp. 17–29) a paper containing remarks on 113 species of birds obtained or identified in that island. Thence he proceeded to Vannes, in Brittany, which he made his headquarters for exploring Belle Ile and the neighbouring islets in search of the Roseate Tern, and, though unsuccessful, he undoubtedly deserved success. Subsequently he made excursions—chiefly in spring, for he was a keen birds'‐nester—to the valley of the Seine and some of the forests of Normandy, to Holland, and to the Hebrides&c. in Great Britain. At his home at Hounsdown, near Totton, Hants, on the borders of the New Forest, he continued to study birds up to the close of his life, and his garden was well stocked with nesting‐boxes, at which he could observe at leisure the habits of his feathered favourites. He wrote little, but he was emphatically a f
