SPEED OF BIRDS IN FLIGHT

__ntorestiag Records. (> Gompiee Regarding Their, “= “Velocity--Must ¢ Greatly Modified~A'~ Mile a “Minute.

It seems probable that current esti- mates df the speed of birds’ flight nrust be modified, On-Mondty, June 27th, 4 number of carrier pigeous were fown front the Shetland Islands to London. This m-a great distance even for train- wd birds, the total Heugth-of the journey being 50144 miles.~ The date being a week after the longest day in the year the birds had the advantage of daylight during their whole fight, and. the win* ner arrived at the house ef its’ owner, Mr. Clotterbuek, of Stanmore, in eight minutes tader sixteen capeys They bad been liberated at Lerwick at 3:30 a.m..

. The official weather chart of the me teorological office gaye, riot for the first fime, information of the>utmost vale for estimating the conditions of wind un- der which the fight Was made. Hvpry “arrow” from Kirkwall to London potnt- ed dwe south. In other words, the birds

og had the wind behind them throughout their journey. The resalt ie that, what is very nearly an approach to 8 migration flight, the pigeons travelled at a speed of thirty-seven miles an hour.

An interesting correspondence fp the Field following the announcement of this -fact.—shows how widely observers. differ on this very interesting question, but the reports ap proach more nearly to

the lower estimate in each case in which |

accuracy bas been possible, = in ang ease the surmise of the late Gatke that iigreting birds. trave! oe gti alty-at speeds reaching “hour cannot now be seriously defende?.

Otber correspondents give | instances that lexve. little doubt that shore birds do travel at speis considerably—-abore 650 miles an hour but as regards the flight. of a pigéon some expcrimemts car- ried out by the proprietors of the Field many- years ago leave little doubt that ths speed shown to the Shetinod-fight Is . normal. Twelve records with the chro nograph give the highest speed to the “blue rock” pigeon of from thirty- three | to thirty~ight miles-an-hour.
