Abstract
THE volume before us is the seventh of the series of annual reports on migration which we owe to the industry of a committee of the British Ornithologists' Club, which has set itself the task of collecting evidence over a period of ten years, and thereafter of summarising the data thus obtained. The reports have increased progressively both in scope and bulk, and the one before us is a stout volume. It deals mainly with the immigratory movements of birds visiting England and Wales for the purpose of nesting in the summer of 1911. Passage movements are also dealt with, and the autumn movements of 1910 as reported by lighthouses and light-vessels. Summaries of the meteorological conditions are furnished for purposes of comparison.
