{. MAKE LONG FLIGHT.

San Francisco, Sept. IA flock of
Guillemots or sea pigeons, sc large
that it appeared to be a great dark
cloud, swept into San Francisco bay
through the Golden Gate recently.
After the birds disported themselves
about the bay for a brief time they
resumed their fight northward.
The sea pigeons were from the
Farallone Island, &c miles off the en-
trance to San Francisco bay. and an
hour and a half was required for the
flock to pass a given point.
Every year, according to DR.. H. c..
Bryant, ornithologist at the University
of California. the birds leave the
islands about mating season and wing
their way to Alaska, Siberia and other
northern regions. DR.. Bryant said
they usually fly far out at sea on their
yearly migration. >The Guillemots are
black except for a touch of gray be-
meath the wings.
