Report on the Migration of Birds in the Autumn of 1879. [First Report]

John Alexander Harvie-Brown and John Cordeaux

Along the lighthouses and lightships of Britain, keepers began noting every bird that passed or struck the glass. This first report, for autumn 1879, gathers those observations species by species from the east coast of England and the west coast of Scotland. The start of a remarkable collaborative study of migration. Follow the birds by the lamps that watched them cross.
