Note 28 — EAST COAST OF ENGLAND.
Reading edition
This rush appears to have, in a greater or less degree, covered the whole of the east coast. At the Longstone L.H., Farn Islands, it is recorded by our observer, Mr. T. 0. Hall, as follows:—"Nov. 10th, all kinds of small birds coming all day, one Snipe seen, wind southerly, hazy weather; at 8 a.m., three grey crows to E. 11th, birds still coming, all kinds, or rather the small kind, two Snipe, and one Woodcock. 12th, great rush of Blackbirds, Ouzel, a few Mistletoe Thrushes., Redwings, Lapwings, Grey and Golden Plover, as well as Woodcock and Snipe. This is the greatest rush of the season, and lasted all day up to 10 p.m.; complete absence of Starlings; wind all day from S. to S. by W., after midnight changing to N.W." There was no corresponding rush across Heligoland during the same period.
