BIRDS CROSS THE ATLANTIC,
Some of Them Can Make Trip I'm
Less than Nine Hours.

Some of Them Can Make Trip I'm
Less than Nine Hours.
The presence Of American birds in
this country raises the interesting
question, How do they cross the inter-
yening 1000 miles Of ocean? Can we
suppose bird is capable of sustained
flight for sufficiently long period to
accomplish this? On the superstition
that the yellow shank can fly at the
rate Of 100 miles an hour 1t would &C
complish the distance in fourteen
hours. And then it must be remem-
bered that this bird, being a wader,
would be able to rest from time to time
on the water.
AS regards the rate of flight attained
by birds in their migratory journeys,
some interesting computations are to
be found in Katke's "Heligoland as an
Ornithological Observatory" His fig-
ures are 125 miles an hour for the
northern blue throat and 245 for the
Virginia plover. At the last rate the
Atlantic could be crossed in about eight

er American birds, including the red

recorded from the Sicily Islands.
Other American birds, including the
yellow-bllled cuckoo, have been record
ed in Ireland. And in connection with
this crossing of the Atlantic by Amer
lean birds 1t is interesting to note an
apparent attempt to cross in the oppo-
site direction. In a British association
report for 1887 we read
