2. “Notes on Two Birds recently shot at Napier,” by A. Hamilton. The one was a white-eyed duck (Nyroca australis), shot at Te Aute; the other a good specimen of the spotted shag (Phalacrocorax punctatus), shot at the Port.
Mr. Hamilton exhibited a very large kiwi-egg, sent to the Museum by Mr. Brill, of Tarawera; and also a number of carved perches and snares for native birds from the Taupo district.
