Case 295
During the summer months, the Whinchat may be found widely distributed over the British Islands. On his first arrival in the Spring, the male is a bright handsome bird; at the time of his departure, however in the autumn, he can hardly be distinguished from his plainly dressed family. The specimens in the case (with the exception of the male, who was shot earlier in the season) were obtained at Potter Heigham, in Norfolk, in July, 1870.?
