Summary "Report on the Migration of Birds in the Spring and Autumn of 1882" by Mr. John A. Harvie Brown, Mr. John Cordeaux, Mr. R. M. Barrington, and Mr. A. G. More is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This report provides a comprehensive summary of bird migration observations recorded by various lighthouse and lightship keepers along the East Coast of Scotland, East Coast of England, and the Irish Coast. The book likely covers the methodologies used in these observations, as well as the findings regarding different bird species and their migratory patterns. The opening of this work establishes a framework for understanding bird migration as scientists and volunteers document their findings after a systematic data collection process. It begins with a preface detailing the formation of a Committee appointed to oversee the migration study, expressing a desire for detailed records that contribute to natural history. The narrative is bolstered by excerpts from previous literature and poetic observations that capture the beauty and mystery of these migratory journeys. The initial data provided highlights specific bird sightings and weather conditions, setting the stage for a more detailed analysis in the following sections.
