| Abstract: | The period 1969-1973 has received adequate coverage by Beaman and Galea. The present contribution deals with the autumn passage of 1975. Observations were made between 13.00 hrs and sunset (circa 19.00 hrs) on twenty-seven days in September and six days during the first two weeks of October. Visits in October were made whenever the opportunity presented itself. and not when the weather appeared favorable. Birds were observed through 8x30 binoculars from the vantage-point used by Beaman and Galea. The relevant statistics for the various species are tabulated. |
