Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Notes on the Birds of Northamptonshire and Neighbourhood, Vol. 2
No part of our county with which I have any acquaintance is now suited to the usual habits of this species, except possibly the fens of our extreme north-east; but as the bird is a vernal migrant to this country and used formerly to Visit parts of Cambridgeshire and West Norfolk, more or less regularly, on passage to its northern breeding-stations in April and May, and again in September and October on the return journey to winter-quarters, there is at least nothing improbable about its chance appearance within our limits.
