“When a flock alights at this season on a field, the individuals
disperse, run about with great activity, and pick up their food. Sometimes
one finds them so tame that he can approach within fifteen yards, and I
have often walked round a flock several times in order to force them
together before shooting. In windy weather they often rest by lying flat
on the ground, and I have reason to think that at night this is their general
practice. In the Hebrides I have often gone to shoot them at night by
moonlight, when they seemed as actively engaged as by day, which was
also the case with the Snipes; but I seldom succeeded in my object, it
being extremely difficult to estimate distances at night. The numbers that
at this season frequent the sandy pastures and shores of the Outer
Hebrides is astonishing.

Bill black. Iris brown. Feet bluish-grey. The upper part of the head,
the fore part of the back, and the scapulars are beautifully variegated
with brownish-black and bright yellow, the latter in spots along the edges
of the feathers. The hind part of the back greyish-brown, variegated with
yellow of a duller tint; the tail brown, barred with white. The wings are
hair-brown, the smaller coverts spotted with yellowish-white, the
primary coverts and secondaries tipped with white. The inner
secondaries like the scapulars. Part of the forehead, the loral space, a
band over the eye, and the throat, are greyish-white; the sides of the neck
and body variegated with brown, dull white and yellowish. The breast
and a broad band down the fore-neck, are brownish-black, the latter
margined on each side with white. Axillar feathers, and lower tail-
coverts white.
The black on the lower parts is peculiar to the breeding season; and
after the autumnal moult, they become of a light greyish colour, spotted
and streaked with deep grey. In other respects the plumage is similar to
that described above.
Bill and feet greyish-blue. Iris deep brown. Upper part of head and
back mottled with black and pale yellow; wing-coverts greyish, with
white and dusky spots, as are the sides of the head and the throat; a broad
band of white over the eye; fore part of neck pale grey, fading into pale
cream colour and white; the breast and fore-neck with large spots of
black.

The Pelicans and Gannets are similar in this respect to the Gulls, as
are the Cormorants, which, however, have the terminal pad projecting
and more pointed. In the Guillemots, also, it is rounded, with small
distinct rounded scales. In the Frigate Bird, in which the webs are short,
and do not modify the pads, the terminal scales are similar to those of the
Gulls. In the genus Lestris, they are smaller, and obscured by the webs,
their papillæ smaller and more pointed. In the Terns, they are similar to
those of the Gulls, but narrower, and with the papillæ large. In Phaeton
æthereus, the webs appear to obliterate the terminal papillæ, which are
very small. In all these, the extremities of the toes are more or less
rounded, and terminated just beneath the claw by a semicircular series of
scales larger than those immediately behind.
In the Auks, however, there is a large scale or plate, on the inner side
of the middle toe, and then a series of narrow scales. In Mormon
glacialis, of which the end of the middle toe is represented by fig. 2,
there is a single much recurved narrow horny plate, behind which is a
narrow series of oblong scales. In the genus Puffinus, there is also a
single short rounded terminal scale or plate.
The Colymbi or Divers have the end of the toe very narrow and flat,
with a single small rounded terminal plate, and numerous small scales
behind it. These birds have the claws depressed, a form which shews its
extreme development in the Grebes. Of the extremity of the middle toe
of one of these, Podiceps cristatus, fig. 3. is a representation. Here the
claw is almost quite flat, and the end of the toe beneath it is not elevated
or rounded as in almost all the other genera, but perfectly depressed, and
having its outline concave, but still, as usual, with a series of large
scales.

Having now reached the point from which I started, according to the
approved method of reasoning in a circle, or if not, of exhibiting natural
objects in a circular arrangement, I take my leave, hoping that when I
again request your indulgence, I shall be enabled to present you with
something equally curious, and perhaps better calculated to induce you
to extend your inquiries into the neglected parts of the structure of those
objects, whose investigation cannot fail to raise our minds towards the
Being who framed the beautiful and harmonious system of which we
form a part.
