and was preserved by Mr. Braddon, of Guildford. It was recorded by him in 'The Zoologist,' Jan. 15th, 1902, p. 32. It is the first record from Surrey since the year 1862.
Grey-Lag Goose (Anser cinereus).—A specimen was shot at East Molesey, on the river, in hard weather, in January of 1880. It passed into Mr. F. Yearley's hands for preservation (F. Styan and J. Mitchell).
Bean Goose (A. segetum).—Capt. E. Barnard Hankey informs me that in the winter of 1892 a specimen was shot by himself and his brother at Cannon Farm, Fetcham, on the bank of the River Mole. It is preserved, and is now in the possession of J. Barnard Hankey, Esq., of Fetcham Park, where I have examined it. I am glad to be able to record this the second definite instance of the shooting of this species in the county. The only other local example of which I am aware was shot near Godalming in 1841, and is now in the Charterhouse Collection.
Bernacle Goose (Bernicla leucopsis).—In the winter of 1875 a specimen was shot on the Thames, at Thames Ditton. It was preserved and exhibited at the 'Bear Inn,' Esher, being stuffed by Mr. F. Yearley (F. Styan and J. Mitchell).
Pochard (Fuligula ferina).—One was shot at West Molesey on Jan. 8th, 1869, and preserved by Mr. F. Yearley (F. Styan and J. Mitchell). On Fetcham mill-pond—which, owing to its numerous springs, is seldom, if ever, frozen over, and is consequently a favourite resort for duck in hard weather—this species frequently occurs. Capt. Hankey informs me that he has seen as many as thirty or more together on the lake, and on one occasion killed no fewer than eight in one afternoon. He has some specimens preserved from that locality, and on Boxing Day, 1901, shot one out of a small flock which were on the water. On the 5th January, 1902, a male was observed by Mr. Gordon Dalgliesh on Forked Pond, near Milford (in lit.).
Tufted Duck (F. cristata).—Capt. Hankey informs me that this species has occurred occasionally on Fetcham mill-pond in hard weather, and he has preserved specimens shot at that place. On Boxing Day of 1901 a pair were observed and one shot by him on that water. This specimen he kindly presented to me, and it is now in my possession.
Scaup (F. marila).—A male was shot on Jan. 10th, 1877, on
